[RE-wrenches] Battery Boxes?

[Joel Davidson]

Hello August,

See The New Solar Electric Home, 3rd edition, page 225, for a photo of polyethylene tool boxes used to enclose L16 batteries (also John Wiles' Home Power #98 article). I suggest asking John Wiles where to get the boxes.

Best regards,
Joel Davidson

    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
