Not sure if we are back to offending Ivan or looking at containers full of 
batteries.
Containers are a magnet for thieves.  They just cannot pass one up.  Weld in a 
new door with a steel frame and steel door.

I can tell you I took an hour trying to explain this term to my wife, 
who is Israeli. After an hour I gave up because either she didn't 
understand the term in reference. I attribute this to her either not 
understanding it because that is just how you purchase things, and there 
is not comprehension of another way. That or she didn't understand how 
someone would be offended by that association because why would you be 
offended by an association that means that your culture is 
representative of not being a dumb ass and paying to much.

So these are C&D brand AGM batteries?



What have they been doing since 2014?  Sitting on a pallet?
Being float charged?  In service in said 3 Phase UPS?
Depending on shipping cost, it sounds like a remarkable
deal, but not if they have been charged and discharged for
2-3 years worth of power outages.



I have bought new-old-stock AGM telecom batteries that sat
on pallets for 12 months, and they required almost no
charging to bring them up to full state of charge.  (I think
after a year from date of manufacturer they can’t be sold as
new anymore.)  Flooded cell batteries would be a different
story if they were just sitting there discharging since
2014, they would probably be totally discharged.

Re: [AFMUG] batteries good deal?

2017-01-30 Thread Zach Underwood
talked with the selling and I am going to look at it tonight.

Here is the deal
1. battery cabinet with high amp dc fuse/disconnect
2. all of the jumper cables
3. 36x battery

The seller said that the batteries was installed in about 2015 for a tv
station and last last year they upgraded to a larger UPS.

I feel like I hit the jackpot. :)
