If the 60 volt arrangement is dropping the voltage across a bolt to 6, then maybe 50 x 24 volt series pairs, or 33 x 36 volt (omitting one battery) or 25 x 48 volt is even more optimal.

Fantastic videos guys. Beyond fantastic. Please keep in mind a bunch of ozone (and the other gasses you guys generate) can mess you up. And UV!
