No. 4 is in transit, and all of that goes vertical .

Any compression being used?

Silly question: How do folks move around a monster battery that weighs something like > 625lbs (~275kg)?

Yes, but quite Stone Age type. Din rails and screw rods.

In my case disassemble and re assemble. They are going from attic to garage.

But everything is numbered so shouldn’t be to difficult.

Present setup has wheels that never been used

Just be careful if you are applying pressure on a narrow strip and not the full face of the cells.

No, no. There’s a 10mm thick plank of same dimensions as cell.

I’m still thinking how to compress them in vertical position….

I’m picturing the botttom of cell 8 has 100 lbs on it with 7 other cells stacked on top.

True, but they sell them like that.
