Depending on your version of PowerTrust, there can be up to 20
"motorcycle" batteries.  Each weighs about 20lbs.

You need to manually unscrew the connectors, (they are small), pull the
wires and washers off, and replace them in order.

I payed an electrician to do it, it took him (and he was fast) about 3
hours to do.
