摘要: A magnetic track system for transporting batteries at a telecommunications site includes a plurality of pods which are magnetic and which are attachable to a battery; and a track system including repelling magnets, wherein the track system is selectively laid between a first point to a second point to transport the battery with the plurality of pods attached thereto, wherein the transport comprises pushing or pulling the battery along the track system. The track system can include a plurality of tracks, strips, or a rollable mat. The track system can have a length less than a distance between the first point and the second point, wherein the track system is moveable such that tracks which have already been traversed by the battery are moved to a front to accommodate the distance.
