So it begins...... Battery spot welder

[sternwake]

Well, the less precise motor is unchanged in feel, and i can still sometimes hear something rubbing, but it could be the other hub motor, which of course will be disassembled, and inspected.

The brakes are still jerky, sometimes, and doing its weird staccato lockuo thing before motors even get hot. Reocating antenna and organizing wiring and hearsinking, seems to have done nothing in this regard.

I'm thinking the ESC is at fault. but it seema to be one of those things where diagnosis means replace and see.

The spot welder has arrived. It Looks a bit beefed up compared to its older product reviews on youtube. A thick brass bar is used instead of a fat trace of solder.

They say no less than a 25amp hour 12v lead acid Battery can be used. ActuLly says 25 to 50, though i cant see how too big a battery could be detrimental.

The only nickel strip i have is all schmemmied from removal of failed 38$k8 battery, so testing might have to wait for nes nickel strip, . to fire it up.

If i can wait.

Half the road outfront is repaved. I was on itt while it was still hot from the machines.
so smooth, and quiet.


Damn jerky brakes.
