|  Homemade Battery plates/weigh station I fabed these up today out of some 3/4" X 1/8" aluminum stock.   I then proceeded to add 1oz of weights to the underside of each plate.  Here are the batteries mounted (its a pic without the weights but you get the idea)  I'm gonna try to make some 4 link plates tomorrow. What do you think??

| Lay the batteries down on their sides so they can't short out on the aluminum as they vibrate around on that electrical tape over the ends of your batterys straps... |

| Looks awesome! I'm probably going to try and fab some up for myself this weekend - we'll see how that pans out though  |

| Have you trail-tested it yet? And most definately be careful of shorting out your packs. |
