[PSUBS-MAILIST] battery experiment

[Alan James via Personal_Submersibles]

 Hank, it could work but it would be easier to make a box out of ply wood & oil fill it & just have 2 through hulls for the wires. If you are having batteries in series you would be creating multiple points where the connecting wires would have to be sealed & could fail. Are they sealed lead acid batteries? Alan

 Okay, your gonna think I am nuts  but I am doing an experiment with lead acid batteries.  I am going to make a new cap that accepts a barbed hose fitting and water tight post enclosures , so I can fill the battery with oil and submerge it without an enclosure (battery pod)The hoses will be coiled and open to the sea.  Do you think it will work?Hank_______________________________________________
