I'd recommend going to usplastic.com and looking at their high density polyethylene rectangular tanks. I think the brand is Tamco. They come in a variety of sizes. They are sturdy 1/4" poly. You can get fitted lids. It's easy to hole saw them for conduit. I have used them a few times for small battery banks. If necessary you could combine two of them with conduit for a larger bank. They are acid proof and neat looking.
They are a bit pricey, but consider the hassle and cost of getting together materials, assembly, lining, painting, etc. Hilton Dier III Renewable Energy Design Solar Gain, LLC Missisquoi River Hydro LLC _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
