Hi builders,

I am making some battery holders for the optima battery. I need 2 myself, if anybody is interested let me know
before monday. I will make then so that they are screwed to the the top rail and hold down the battery to the
battery panel. they will have some EPDM protection 3mm where they touch the battery.

here the drawing, the grey material is 3mm EPDM of which I have lots of.
I am estimating the price to be around 80 EURO, depending on availability and bending, I will increase the thickness to 3mm if possible.
It will be possible to screw the holder to the front rail, so it holds the battery down and prevents movement in any direction.
I have put 3mm EPDM under the battery as well so it is cushioned eveywhere.
