Do you guys think that an old and cleaned out car battery would make a good gen? I was just thinking that it is set up for something like this but I have never been able to take one apart and see how it looks inside. Maybe someone on here would be able to provide some info on this.
I have a battery I can test if you think this might work.

this has been discussed a few time on this forum, search for it and u will see this is a bad idea, because of the lead in the battery.

Telling someone to search is kinda lame. I did, but maybe I was not specific enough. Stated in my post was to clean out the battery and by that what I meant was to remove everything and use the sell for the gen. It already is built for the weight and heat. Sorry if I offended you by correcting you in another post.

Stroker an idea I've seen for a lid is bolt 1"x1" nylon strips around the outside top edge and buy a plastic cutting board from wal-mart and cut it to size.Drill thru the lid and the stripping for the bolts to secure the lid,then make a gasket to fit made of neoprene or soft pvc sheet.

might give you some ideas.

don't know what MPG is, probly low 20s
Now there's an idea! I relocated my battery to the back on my XB so'd I'd
have a place to put my H-generater. If I used a Batt Box for the thang I could set 'em back in the battery holder. Hell, nobody'd know
