what is the largest tower battery you have on your model?

so far on my model vr101 i have 2- 8 sheave roller batteries.on towers 1,3 and 4,those towers have 12 sheave roller batteries.im working on a set of 16 sheave tower batteries for tower 4.im building them due to the steep angle going into the station..

I stay at the maximum of eight per tower cause otherwise my type of fully balanced batteries would get too wide. If the rope skew angle is too large i would use double towers.
