well being able to support the weight is something im not too too worried about, because mcmaster carr has some very heavy duty wheels for a good price, (can hold a few thousand pounds)

When i do electrical, i do everything in my power to make sure, its safe, perfect, and also pretty, because ugly wiring is ugly, and the weatherproofing is also not much of an issue, but the battery will have some form of leak-proof box, for weather reasons as well as battery spills.
