Hey All,
I've been battling low voltage on my cells and was convinced I had a bad cell. I ordered 4 cells as spares (since the blue CALB 130 Ah cells are being discontinued). Well, I replaced once cell and in doing so, decided to clean the copper jumpers at the same time (there was a slight bit of blackness on one of the copper jumpers.) After driving, I found another cell that was dipping to around 2.6V. I decided to clean the copper jumpers using my bench grinders wire wheel. I re-installed and my drop improved to 2.8V under ~300 amp loads. So now I'm thinking I need to clean all 50 of my jumpers and I'd like to put something on the joints. I've found some old threads on the matter. It seems like a good idea to put some kind of joint compound in there since one of the CALB battery terminals is aluminum and will want to oxidize. I'm thinking of using this stuff: http://www.amazon.com/Noalox®-Anti-oxidant-Compound-Oz-Bottle/dp/B0019KHHRE any thoughts? thanks! -ben www.evalbum.com/4001 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
