Plus some fixes so hopefully this wont happen next time.

  • melted the crap out of that cap

  • I really appreciate your R&D work. You're helping us to avoid the mistakes that we would surely have made! Keep up the good work.

  • .............:)........:(.....­...:)

  • it has been my experience that if you draw over 20 amps you have the problem with the terminals, anytime I have pushed over 20 amps in a wet cell the terminals always get hot enough to melt stuff after on for bout an hr..I even had mine in the sides and they were under the water in the container and still had that happen when going over 20 amps

  • yeah the abs lids do work better than the plain pvc ones

  • Experience is what you get,

    when you didnt get what you wanted!

    or

    An inconvienence is an adventure wrongly considered.

    I think either one of these quotes are appropriate for this video.Keep up the good work.

  • As in the plumbing in your house, if you have plastic tubing, your hot water side would be cpvc. It handles hot water without distortion, but I have not seen cpvc in the sizes we need for a booster cell, although it may be out there. Will do some checking. Good Work Steve.

  • this is typical with bad connections, if your terminals are loose, a hot spot develops and the end result is terminal meltdown.

  • I think you are doing a supeerb job, bad and good results. Outstanding

  • think its engine heat?

    cause if its e-lyte heating it, you could try using an inverter and use hv with a retifier to bring it back to dcv, and then the cell wont get half as hot, and you wont have to use any e-lyte. just use the spacing to contol amperage, thanks for video.
