BIG GAP...?

2. Finally order one of those Stretcher / Shrinker...Shrink outer edge (sticks out!)
3. Stick on rubber strips
Should do it...?

Tell us some wiring details on these two smaller batteries in-line, looks like a good space-saver, How's it gonna work (wire)?

. . .

 

If you put 2 6Volt batteries after each other (SERIES) You get 12volts - Same AmpHours.
Put 2 6V batteries next (PARALLEL) You get 6volts. Double AmpHours.

I literally shaved off every mm including the filter brsckets....1/8 clearance on each side.

Forgive me for the High Pressure stuff...

Dam I used to HATE those things. Try hanging upside down in the ****pit of a F-4 Phantom and removing the potting material and removing one pin and soldering in a new one and repotting.

 

Man how did I miss this thread? Subscribed!

At least nowadays you can get them with crimp pins and sockets, no need solder. Great idea Tommy!

 

Paint time....
