How often do you have to lug it back and forth?

My 230 8s is very manageable now that I have handles on the wooden case. It only needs to move 20 feet from basement to car then car to...

Note that there is a big difference between thermal runaway and igniting venting electrolyte. In the latter, if you take outside oxygen...

One thing I do like about the Delta 2 max, it can really charge pretty fast if you need it to, this is with the d2m set to only use...
