My aging battery bank has lived on a two level frame since installation,
Ok the pic is somewhat blurred I know I could refer you to the IRC gallery but that would be against the rules so squint and believe.
But because of aging plastic casings and leaking acid the metal frames are now decaying such that the upper level batteries are somewhat on the piss.
So.... I have now laid a concrete pad to double the battery shed size so all can be at ground level. Also each battery weighs 60kg dry plus 6.5 litres of acid, so lifting each battery for repair is fast becoming beyond my ability to lift (OK a wimp I know).
My question, as the casings age they frett on the bottom and leak, normally I decant the acid and plaster the base with auto bog... as I move each bank to a new ground level home I want to reinforce the base by lifting each battery cleaning and bogging the base. Opinions please on wether I should stick with auto bog or use fiberglass. I will need a mould for either, the advantage of auto bog as I see it is it dries in about 30 min so on to the next battery.
