    I am thinking about the 31M but worried about shipping damage with such a heavy product thats going to be susceptible to drop damage!!! How do they ship these to prevent damage? I was in on the ARB twin compressor group buy and they shipped it in its fragile product box and had damage and missing parts.

    I remember @Braves95 ordering a 31 in the last group buy - maybe he can provide input on the shipping box.

    Granted, I don't know who this specific vendor is...but if it helps, I've been in several of Ramon's GB's...and his other vendors have been super reliable and not fly by night. As in "They'd know how to ship this correctly, 'cause that's what they do all day" level of competent.

    Yes it's a heavy MF'er. And the box was strong and no damage when I got one. Go for it. I got a battery holder from pelfreybuilt.

    I got a 31m in the last group buy and I don't recall how it was packaged but the battery was perfectly fine when I got it. Highly recommend it and recommend it through the group buy price.
