48v @ 24ah vs 52v at 20ah for Ultra. What would you choose?!

[Gemini8026]

Doing my third custom build for this summer. Have done a BBS02 on 48v, a BBSHD at 52v, and now I am getting an ultra with a frame from China. Going to aprt out my other builds as I have enjoyed them but the end game is a full suspension fat bike for cruising and Canadian winter use! It takes the larger Dorado Reention battery so I have some unique options. I love my BBSHD @ 52volts, however I am curious if the benefits of 52 volts at 20ah are negated by 48v at 24ah.

Just curious what most people would choose in this case. It just so happens the 24ah option is also almost 100$ cheaper due to my supplier's pricing.......

52V 20Ah is 1040 Wh
48V 24Ah us 1152Wh

So if you don't need to extra speed that 52V would provide, the 48V battery should provide better range. That said, you get what you pay for, so I'd be skeptical about a battery, that's $100 cheaper, that has a greater number of cells in it. If there's no specifics regarding the cells, I would ask.
