Title: ECO-Charge SLA CAP
Post by: crunchy on October 05, 2004, 06:29:37 PM

I am making a 6v SLA and I would like to make it like the eco-charge batteries with the plastic cap ontop with the xlr connected inside it. Anyone made on, or know where to buy one? I really dont like having a cable hanging off of my SLA. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

i have never seen them except on eco's so your best bet may be too duct tape the shit out of the sla, like i did my 12v :)

I don't think the plastic cap Eco Charge uses is an off the shelf part.  Pretty sure they were made specifically for them.

I called once and asked if they would sell a cap to me. No dice...

That cap is the only thing that makes the BP50 special.  Thats a $85 piece of plastic.

If you guys want a cap, why not just beg for broken eco-charge batteries in the yard sale and pry the cap off.  Then fit the cap to a replacement battery.
