pic: Our batteries finally look good!

I'd be wary of labelling over the battery vent ports. The rectangular strip is designed to come off to help relieve pressure when the cells vent hydrogen unexpectedly. Maybe it's worth carefully scoring the label?

Yeah, I was suggesting we also put them on the sides, but Aren insisted the top. We may change this though depending on how our cart is built (which I'm in the middle of building right now). Thanks for the tip.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who labels batteries by the phonetic alphabet.

Yea, I put the labels inside or right above the top vent port specifically so it could be removed without any need to rip our labels.

it is a simple paper label, which tend to be fairly permeable.

Alan,

I can forward it along, but you can also purchase handles and other accessories at http://www.powerwerx.com/powerpole-accessories/

We just chose to print some to expose some of the kids to the available technologies we have in the Iowa State Shop.
