Carrying Batteries thru the rough [RE-wrenches]

[Ezra Auerbach, Xantrex]

If the batteries are in wooden or steel boxes a great trick is to use a pair of
four foot pipe clamps.  They can be firmly attached to the boxes and the
battery is carried by two people srecher style.  Works very well over rough
terrail.
