Ok, so a few PM's talking about cell checkers and linear testing had a little light bulb go off this morning... I havn't quite decided if it's halogen, led or 35W HID.... or a flooded scout..
These cell checkers are basically a pressure pot right? A chamber that can be pressurized, flooded w/ O2 and milivolt's read off the cells...?
The expensive 'guts' are already in the meg itself... Why not something like caps that threads on, tap one for a valve and quick disconnect for O2 feed and the other for an IP guage....? Maybe a bleed valve to vent the original air from the chamber....
I'd have to imagine +3 ata wouldn't hurt the unit...

If I'm reading you right.
A 6" diameter scrubber will have about 28 square inch surface area.
Putting a 2 ata positive pressure in the scrubber can will yield 29.4 psi of pressure.
There will be 830 pounds of force trying to blow the lid off your scrubber.
Sounds like latch failures and a posthumous Darwin award.
