Eh Pete I did ask my mate about buying wire and he did say down the road is motor re-winder who would have a heap of wire on the shelf, so my tip would be for you to check out motor re-winders in your area and you may just get luckily
Got some scrap 75x50 RHS home today so this weekend I'll make up the former so I can get this huge E-core up for testing and if it does work out buying another board from ali will work out cheaper than the parts I need to finish the mad inverter.
Now with me getting a CMM2 this old battery checking project can get going as my intention is to hook an inverter so the shed is on it's own array so the missus can get her hobby out to the shed and out of the house.
If this old battery does work out and it is an old sonnenshein 2 volt 600AH bank i'm going to take the caps off and make a diluted solution of sulphuric acid and top them up with the hope of riving this original batteries that powered the farm. Now please note when these batteries went down I put a 600AH 24 volt forklift battery in that is still going today aswell as the Selectronic inverter that has been going 24/7 since '03.
So this is all part of my 20 year upgrade and a huge thanks to this forum is on the cards.
Cheers Bryan
