Turtle Accessory battery

I have photos this time for the literacy-challenged!

Don't worry, I have a short attention span too.

I just went down to put the SLA temporary accessory battery on charge, and ended up spending a few hours getting the real battery installed properly instead.

Battery with PCB/BMS and shunt, finally ready to install in the Firefly:


In it's final resting place...hopefully. Maybe not those ugly straps though:


Shunt still accessible for meter hookup:


Meter goes in next, after xmas. Still need to decide where it will go. It fits well in several places!

Amazing how long one can spend on just one little battery...sticking with lead would have been much simpler.
