Work day comes to loose ends and charges forward
September 22, 2007 by Rob.
Today was a mini-work day to clean up some loose ends in front, back, and behind the RAVolt.
I neatened up the some of my wiring to show better at the Maker Faire. This classifies as “lipstick on a pig” but that bacon sure is tasty!
A front battery cover keeps acid from splashing the hood. I’m out of yellow paint so Laura’s sign is more proudly displayed. Maybe I should get another can of paint… [note 9/27: I found some paint and it’s much better now]
And a new battery charger with 1.5 amps of umph to teach my auxiliary battery some proper respect. Note to self: cheap chargers = poor results.
