[QUOTE=squiggles;140626]Great stuff Jack, you should have your own TV show it would be a lot more entertaining than Oprah!!

Hey Oprah is retiring. Maybe you have a chance!

I just hope my first test is as much fun.

Great job Jack.

John

More entertaining than Oprah?! That's just not possible... Wait, I meant that it's not possible to be f***** and u***** than Oprah. It's a puzzle. They aren't swear words.

Hint: Not Freedom and Usurpitude.

I don't think reversing an ev into a tree is qualification for a tv show

I think some people on TV have gotten a show on less qualifications, so don't rule it out... I enjoyed your conversation...

I think reversing a car into a tree while filming and narrating is ample qualification...don't you just love the way the Irish don't pronounce the 'h' following a 't'.

Hey guys,

Ive been working hard over the past couple months or so on a surface mount version of the control board. This board includes the infamous Pre-charge circuit and a bus voltage measurement circuit.

I have also modified my driver board design to improve on some little things I found with my first version. These are also surface mount so they can be assembled on machines, but i also added through hole pads so I could assemble them by hand if I wanted.

Well Im tired. Here are some pictures!!!








-Adam

EDIT: I forgot to mention, These will be populated Saturday December 5th!!
