Just a thought Graham, but do they have enough ventilation in there?

Keep an eye on those balance boards! They look like you could very easily rip them off in transport.

As long as you can keep them cool enough thats an ACE! idea

Cheers guys for the feedback , as far as keeping them cool goes , there's approximately 40mm of clearance underneath each charger , they are basically floating , and I've already tried an old laptop style 12v fan under there for size which I've wired up to plug straight into the power board , think I'll just fit it to make certain of cooling !

And yes I'm a little worried about damaging the balance boards , they're screwed through not just stuck on , I might try and make a little tray to cover them with , wrapped in carbon obviously !

Failing that , I'm pretty sure they'll be okay , you don't realise that my OCD spreads to my van too !! Everything in its place & no mess !
