nadkaw1957ExplorerMar 23, 2019Battery LockMy version of the home-built battery lock (pre-paint). I used 1-1/2" aluminum flat under the boxes and 1" flat on top.
GdetrailerExplorer IIIMar 23, 2019Looks nicely made.However, a $10 Harbor Freight battery powered grinder with a cutoff wheel WILL easily cut that off in 10 seconds..Aluminum is a poor choice concerning "security"..Steel would only mildly delay a thief with a battery grinder.That only keeps the "casual" thief "honest", will not stop or deter DETERMINED thieves.Best policy is OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND.I would suggest either the stealth approach INSIDE a heavy duty steel box or take them with you..
