I haven't tried the 2v L16s, because they were rated the same cycle
life. (I could be wrong?)<br>
Are you really moving L16s by yourself? I've done it, but its soo
bad for your back. I made several tools for moving the HUPs, one is
a frame and block and tackle for pulling the separate cells out
(weigh less than an L16) and I made a 4 wheeled dolly that can roll
a HUP right off a trailer, through a 30" door, and into the room.<br>
I don't know of anyone that could move a HUP themselves (the
smallest are 742 lb). My favorite is to use a bobcat or forklift,
and just set them in place. Here's a pic of our carrier, hopefully
its small enough to post:<br>
