Re: Battery Carts/Shelves

Spoiler:
Weird way of getting around bumps:

Or, if you want to get complex, spring-load the wheels to a hinged bar below. That will be a shock absorber. However, use only when you know that the conditions will be rough, or if you will be driving solid wheels over a nailbed

Re: Battery Carts/Shelves

Also make sure your chargers have plenty of ventilation or you could have a serious problem. Our battery cary has extra power outlets on it so it doubles as a power strip in the pit, and that is incredibly convenient.

Could you place a small cooling fan to aid charger cooling by ventilating it in small places?
