Last year I purchased 4 Rolls Surrette L16
batteries (856AH total). I wish to attach
battery temperature sensors from my Xantrex
charger and my
Balmar regulator to them.
The standard way is to attach the sensors to the
battery stud, except the manual for these particular
batteries say not to do that, and to attach them to the battery case, about 1/2 way down.
My question is: How do I glue these to the side of the battery case?
I tried thermal tape that I got from an
electronics store, but the sensors fall off as they are too heavy....surprising considering the sensors are pretty light.
My problem with using any normal glue or
epoxy is that I am concerned about getting a correct temperature reading (ie: I don't want the glue to act as insulation)
Any thoughts?
