[RE-wrenches] Hawker versusu MK

Friends: We are shopping for industrial, flooded, lead acid batteries. We are considering 12 volt packages in the 1800 AH range. Under consideration are: Hawker 12-25W-23S at 1705 AH or MK 106M1033STB at 1896 AH. Have any of you had experience with either, or recommend another option? As

I install large battery banks ALL the time. We DO NOT use any battery that is incased in a metal enclosure. REAL pain to move, cells DO go bad when they do its a real pain to bring the engine hoist to remove them. Hard to keep the cases from leaking rusting. We DO use the Surrette 2 volt

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hawker versusu MK

I've got two Hawker installs out here, a 48 Volt and a 24 Volt system. Both are going on 6 years or so. Clients are happy, I'm happy. It does resemble work to move and place them. We typically use Egyptian techniques when heavy equipment isn't available or appropriate. Inclined plane, big pry
