Objective: Analyze battery storage space.

Photos and measurements of the motorcycle were taken today to figure out exactly how much space is needed for batteries. Drafts of possible battery storage mechanisms were created and debated among the group. The original plan was to use a few hundred of the 18650 batteries but we are now debating to switch to 40152 batteries since grater range and speed can be achieved. We have concluded that bigger batteries would be the ideal option because the 18650s would not only take more time to assemble, but also wouldn't be able to achieve as much power as the 40152.
