Interesting that the EQ5000 only stacks to 6 modules, while the EQ4800 stacks to 9. I notice that module stacks seem to be shorter in the USA, so I wonder if that means the EQ5000 is focussed on the USA market.

Unrelated - do the EQxxxx series include battery heaters? It doesn't seem to be mentioned on the datasheets, but I'm sure it's been implied before.

Just as a general FYI in case anyone was interested in this question, Fox have confirmed that the current EQxxxx batteries do not contain a battery heater, but they intend to launch a battery heater soon.

Not clear from that whether they mean a retrofit-able heater, or that they are adding it to a future battery, but at least they're working on it.
