Picked up 2 more batteries from the forklift company. The guy there is pretty cool - interested in the project. I've sent him a few pics of what we've done so far.
It looks like he can supply us with a relatively steady stream of used batteries. I asked, and he said the company doesn't get a core refund when they get replacements - the supplier just takes away the old ones. I told him if he can keep 'em coming, I'd give him a few bucks for each one - whatever amount the recycler will give us for the dead-est ones that we reject.
Of course we still haven't actually tested them to know if they're any good. But if they're only half dead, seems like possibly a good arrangement.
We'll see.
Still haven't gone welder shopping. Need to talk to my brother tonight.
