I am looking to learn to do this kind of work. I am already in the battery business but mainly dealing with smaller lead acid batteries. Do you offer any training on replacing cells in forklift batteries? We can perhaps talk more about compensation of your time. Thanks. Get back with me.
There is an important rule to follow called the 8-8-8 rule. Eight hours use. Eight hours charging. Eight hours cool down. Your battery will be warm when in use. That is normal. If it is hot, there could be a problem. A weak cell (or cells), using a battery that has an amp hour rating that is too low for your equipment, low cell water levels, and over discharging the battery are some causes of a hot battery. Heat is the enemy of every battery.
