I disconnected all the batteries and tested them individually. One of the older ones was warm to the touch and completely failed the load test. One of the batteries I added on 2015-11-20 also failed the load test. I removed these two batteries from the bank. |

Upgrade |
East End Battery Bank |
I added the two batteries recently removed from Alfalfa. These two batteries had Jan 2012 stickers and tested okay in the lab. I charged them up in the lab before taking them to the field. The other four batteries at East End also had Jan 2012 stickers and I think the two I added were originally at this tower or the Corn tower before. |

This is the initial installation of this battery bank for the East End Tower. Four batteries were brought from the DWR Corn Construction tower and installed at this tower. The batteries are on a boardwalk on the ground next to the tower and will be moved to secondary scaffolding later. |
