I am thinking that the wound plate and separator were part of the ability to freeze with damage. That batt looks like a regular gel cell. I used them perhaps 20 years ago. They seemed to work fine. From: Josh Luthman Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2022 2:57 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave

After Chuck told me about them I used them at various sites. This is where they're at now: https://www.amazon.com/Yuasa-Genuine-NP12-12-Battery-Terminal/dp/B007T6QSDG On Wed, Nov 30, 2022 at 4:41 PM Robert wrote: > "request a quote"... First red flag... > > On 11/30/22 1:28 PM, Chuck McCown

I used to work with a guy that was a machinist. He took those 32” toolboxes, turned them sideways so the door opened towards you, added weather stripping, welded plates over all the holes in the side (which was now the top), cut out the padlock holes, welded over those, added draw catches with

Get two. One for batteries and one for equipment. Still cheaper than any proper rack cabinet. Or get a bigger one. You’d have to get 4 of those 32” ones to match the cost of a DDB cabinet. I’m not advocating toolboxes as an ideal solution, but for awhile that was the solution we could

If someone could just make a big hardened battery in an enclosure for cheap, that would be nice. I could stand something the size of a forklift battery next to most of my enclosures. Little box on the side with terminals to connect the leads to. On 11/30/2022 1:51 PM, Steve Jones wrote: we

we tried the jobsite boxes for our 190ah telco batteries, but you can only fit 2 batteries and maybe an apc in them. I went to a fabricator to see about building some custom cabinets. we had a good laugh, he wanted alot more than beer and pizza On Wed, Nov 30, 2022 at 12:40 PM wrote: > If you

If you find one, let us know. I think the issue is that ideal for you is not ideal for everyone. My ideal would be 48V with 4x100Ah batteries. Someone else’s ideal is just gonna be an AC power strip and a light bulb. If there was one configuration that would outsell all others, then

Hi all, Looking at options for tiny WISP sites - ideal would be a small outdoor cabinet with 120VAC input, 2x 12V 12AH / 18AH batteries, ~27V charger/PSU around 5A and a temperature-controlled battery blanket. Is there anything like that in the market so I don't have to organize design/build? --
