I know the sort of hing you want, but I can't remember the name. Plus I think they aren't particularly common these days, being superseded by the new style cabinet hinges. -Gregory On Fri, Aug 6, 2010 at 6:23 AM, odysseyslipw...@aol.com wrote: In a message dated 8/5/2010 12:10:05 P.M.

We can't answer because you haven't specified how they will be wired. Four 6v batteries can imply a 24v system, or a 12v system with two sets of two 6v batteries. I'm going to assume you're talking about a 12v system (because of your second option), and will then assume that option 3 implies two

That doesn't sound correct... I'm not familiar with the tri pact electronics, but think of the AH rating of the battery as the capacity. It won't affect the electronics to have a higher AH rating. You may be mixing up your terms. On Fri, Aug 6, 2010 at 2:29 PM, ryan wells rpw...@hotmail.com

The plastic is not nearly strong enough; you'd be better off using sheets of 2'x4'x1/4 sand pine plywood at $6.99 apiece from Lowe's or Home Despot. Those are not the best materials, but they'll do and they're cheap. The corrugated plastic is not nearly structural strength. On Fri, Aug 6, 2010
