Re: Battery Placement
It should be relatively easy to secure it. All you need to do is buy (or 3d print) one of these and then bolt some straps to the plate you're mounting to. If you already have some Velcro around, you can put together a quick one by bolting down a loop side face up and a hook side face down on opposite ends of the battery. Keep the backing on.

Re: Battery Placement
Just avoid mounting it upside-down.
Also, place it so both the terminals cannot ever touch a piece of metal at the same time. That would cause a short circuit across the battery terminals, which will be a very dangerous event (as in "Flash" "Bang" "Send for Help") |

Re: Battery Placement
This is in addition to making sure the battery terminals are fully insulated with electrical tape and/or heat shrink.

Also let this be the first reminder of the year (that I've seen) to tape your battery terminals thoroughly to avoid arcs. Last year this was an inspection point. Not sure if it is again this year, but make sure you will pass for your own safety even if it's not. |
