Battery layouts.

Post by Chris Blackler »

Hi Guys. A semi newbie here. I’m building the late variant Tiger 1. I’ve now reached the exciting point wherein I’m starting to put the option packs in. Can you please give me some ideas as to how you all layout your modules and especially the main batteries which are giving me some bother! I’m using the Armortek recommended Lead acid batteries.

Hi Chris,

If you look at Gary Richardson's build "Tiger 1 2021 Number 13 - Page 14 you will see he has put his batteries laid flat in Aluminium trays. This is what I copied for my Panther and in my opinion is the best option.

Regards,
Will.

Thanks Will.
Aidrian Harris also messaged me with the same solution. In my ignorance of modern batteries I wasn’t aware you could lie them down. I looked at loads of builds in the group but unfortunately Gary’s build skipped me by! Thanks for taking the time to respond though. It is very much appreciated.
