Hey, I got new batteries! Ben, I'm glad you are putting in a manual disconnect. I feel better now. hehe.
Oh man, how am I going to crimp those big lugs onto the anderson connector?
175 amp (continuous) Anderson Connector!
Hey, a homemade hex-crimper (sort of hex).
Crimp Acknowledged!
Hey, my emergency disconnect "cord". hehe. It's parachute cord that has a breaking strength of like 500 or 600 pounds, even though it's really thin. I bought 6000 feet of it several years ago to make a net for a
solar balloon that I was going to make and fly to Montana, but my wife wouldn't let me. I guess something could have gone terribly wrong, but I still want to try it. I sent one up at noon and it came down around 5 pm (when the sun set) in Spokane. So that sucker went like 300 miles in 5 hours! A student in the math class left her number, so the guy that found it called her. Man! I think it got in the jet stream that goes east at around 30,000 feet up. But I digress...
Wow! I did it! ya! Well, I had to get a nut from Lowe's, and I still haven't attached it to the battery yet. I'll do that tomorrow.
