[RE-wrenches] Battery Boxes?

[James A. Hartley]

Have you tried Solarcraft in Houston yet?  Kevin Conlin would be the one to ask about their battery boxes.  He used some of his own battery boxes for his own house I know.  But Solarcraft is also high end commercial/industrial stuff.  If the demand for such equipment is there, perhaps they'll make it for a better price given such improving circumstances.  Solarcraft is here:  http://www.solarcraft.net/index.htm

  Hi Wrenches -



  We're seeing more and more interest in grid tied battery backup systems in the Bay Area. Anyway, I'm finding that off the shelf battery boxes are quite expensive - the products from MidNite Solar, DPW, etc are all really nice but super pricey.



  Any recommendations on battery boxes? We've been using L16 AGM batteries but we might be going to a different size and shape. Any recommendations on favorite batteries is also appreciated.



  I hope you're all enjoying solar high season! 



  Best,



  August
