For those of you that have wall mounted the PF 16 battery, can you share<br>
techniques and or equipment methods?<br>
I can get my engine hoist into the building and I was hoping to sling the<br>
battery to get it up there. Plan is to mount one above another with 10-12?<br>
of clearance.<br>
Does MidnitePower make anything for this ?<br>
