Probably just how we have them stacked up then - must have two cabinets on
top of each other as well as side by side.=20

I have a feeling we got stitched up there ... I'm sure we paid more than
that!

Actually, no, I was thinking they were eight batteries in a set (with eight
being =A31k ish), if they're four batteries a set then that's about
right..=
.

I'm sure the 2nd Matrix will need replacing sometime though and I'll keep
you in mind for that!

> Have you got the cables from the old batteries??
> I'll pay for them!!

LOL - no - afraid not ... We (I) dumped the lot as we were short on space.

I
was going to keep them but just never had the time to unbolt them all!

Bloke at the local dump was most unimpressed by my turning up with the
Volv=
o
dragging its ars* along the road like an embarrassing dog due to the weight
of the batteries in the boot!

Now what I need to "find" is a device that will give me a set of
maybe six
or eight or more  IEC outputs from a single power cable where the outputs
switch on in turn after a delay so that when we get a power cut and the
power is restored to the house then the switch on surge for all the AV kit
doesn't pop the ring main breaker!
