(ET) (Fwd) Deka Dominators to a good home

["David Roden" <etpost drmm net>]

Forwarded from the EV list.  

If you live in Tom's area (Milwaukee) you might be interested in these.  I 
use six of these type of batteries in my tractor (series-parallel) and 
like 
them very well.  They don't have the range of golf car batteries, but for 
smaller areas and jobs they are fine.  

You shouldn't charge them with the GE charger, but 3 automatic car 
chargers 
from Napa will work great with them.

I have 24, Group 24, 8G24NH (No Handle) Deka Dominators available free 
for anyone who wants them and will come get them.  These served in my 
Solectria E-10 pickup for the last five years and while their capacity 
is down somewhat, they are in really good shape (no bulging, good 
voltages, etc.).   From day 1 these were operated with PowerCheq voltage 
balancers to keep the pack in balance and it shows.  These might be good 
batteries for someone testing a vehicle or even for someone wanting a 
big honking battery backup bank.  I'm replacing them because my truck's 
range has dropped -- I would guess you can get ~20Ah out of them at 
ordinary EV driving currents.

If nobody wants 'em, they'll just get hauled to my local battery shop 
for recycling, which would be kind of a waste.

I'm just North of Milwaukee WI.  Please contact me off list if you want 
them.
