Brief Description:  Modify Battery Mount

1312 - 1500 1600 - 1800

As I am settled on the Modified Z-14 backbone wiring, I needed to alter the battery mount to accept dual batteries. The current plan is to use EarthX VNT900 batteries. These batteries weigh substantially less than standard lead-acid batteries and should have adequate capacity to run the essentially systems for about 2 hours. the batteries are 3.1" x 6.5" so the mount had to be altered.

Removed the side trays from the original battery mount.

Using a bandsaw, remove the vertical portion of the original battery mount.

Fabricate a new battery mount using 063 2024 angle using standard techniques.

Attach the angles to the original mount and side trays using AN3 hardware and AN4 rivets.

The box is sized to allow 1/8" spacing on each side for silicone pads or dimensional differences in the batteries.
