It was either 1038 or 1126 IIRC. It might be a little overkill for battery charging, but what a beautiful and innovative system they had.
1676 uses a home-built battery 'truck' (it looks like a hand truck, but has shelves) with 5 chargers and 10 batteries. Like others, we assign one student to batteries, and they can't get chased out of the pits. Only 4 of the batteries are 2008, the rest 2007. We capacity test and rank them using a borrowed CBA2 from
West Mountain Radio.
