McMaster is insane! Only option is for a piece of tubing is $25!!! I can understand a service charge on small order but $25? They are that hot crazy girl you dated in your 20's. Great, but you eventually need some sanity in your life.

If it is Nylon 66 then it can't be fixed by welding or gluing.

I'm in the remove and reposition crowd. If shortening goes wrong then you will have a lot more time and money.

Well said! Same thing happened to me when I stupidly waded into an AGM battery thread recently. I only have about 35 years experience in all aspects of the battery industry but what do I know. Lol

Yep, file handles. List them on the for sale forum.

Me too!

Agreed!

Lincoln ac225 that was my dad's. 2 lincoln ac/dc idealarc 250's. Just did a big project with my ac225 because it runs better on 208 than the Idealarc's. It is great little machine!

Nice! Rod racks have been on my list for a while. My man card should be revoked for th jumbled mess my gear is in.

Adopt some cats. Mouse problem gone!

You should go back and read my posts. AGM' s are the correct choice in some applications. But not all and most certainly not in a typical automotive application. But I agree this conversation with you is point less and it is time to move on.

So somebody damaged a battery and it is the batteries fault? It is such a rare occurrence for a new battery to be defective and leak that know there is an abuse issue somewhere. That is what is funny!

That's cool! Have never dealt with Edison batteries. Nickel iron? I think they still use them in some stationary applications.

Trust what you want and believe whatever makes you feel better. I will rely on almost 35 years of design, implementation, sales and service of Industrial Batteries, charging systems & related equipment experience.

Foolish strawman argument. Lol, really laughed pretty hard at this!

The "battery university" blurb is jibberish! It has it backwards about the different technologies and depth of discharge -DOD. Also the ability to be charged faster is because of the lower internal resistance. You could never reliable archive this due to heating. It's not benefit that would...

AGM and GEL have their uses, I can see how one with extreme vibration would be one. Gen-set batteries not frequently started is another. They are derived from Stationary/Backup technologies and IMO anyone using one (agm or gel) in a typical automotive application is throwing money away...

As long as the voltage does not venture into the gassing territory of 2.37 vpc or 14.22 volts you are fine. AGM cannot tolerate a higher voltage that a flooded requires to mix the electrolyte and prevent stratification.

You are the victim of marketing speak. Flooded lead acid batteries have a greater capacity for a depth of discharge then AGM(absorbed glass mat -baby diaper) The agm is effectively not as discharged as a flooded battey hence why it will come back. Over discharging agms will extremely shorten...
