bit off the OP's topic, but this will make you feel even better I think? (my T5 conversion) ....It's so good to see an "in production " post. So much better than a "What I did" Makes me feel better about the mess I make
I would say we are about even David, apart from the one thing that scares the living daylights out of me. Those exposed battery terminals. That could have been frightening. I know (don't ask!).bit off the OP's topic, but this will make you feel even better I think? (my T5 conversion) ....

The whole electrics area will be thermostatically controlled with a 24v dc stat, I have two frost tube heaters to go in and a host of fans/ holes/ tubes etc to aid cooling. The batteries sit in a steel cradle so battery swell should be kept to an absolute minimum.I can’t remember where, but I was taught never to use aluminium near batteries. Aluminium frigates or aircraft I guess. With the newer technologies it’s not so much of a problem. Are you going to heat the tray for cold conditions?
One thing for sure, I need to up my standards?
Looks like a great project.
Do you have a Youtube channel or Insta account for the project build?
