Oh really? I haven't opened the box yet. I won't have money to spend on tools for a while! I'll just grab one as a second battery eventually! Just saw they have a hedge trimmer!!!

Holes in metal can be filled, yes? no?

 

Anyway, lots of template making and trial fitting is next.

We are making a roof brace bar as well as a battery bracket to mount behind the passenger seat.

Re Routeing the battery cable via an in-cabin isolator switch for safety.

Also to do is re-locating the 4 port catch can to a more accessible place in the engine bay (currently mounted underneath the strut brace entangled with the IC piping)

Good times

yeah i mean they work just arent as good on big jobs they do charge up a fair bit quicker though, so thats an advantage.

I'm thinking about getting a 4ah myself ... but I got 2x 1.5's for dirt cheap!

I will hardly be doing big jobs very often! So I'm sweet! It's more to take my wheels off

Paid for itself years ago, I keep adding little bits of kit as time passes. A clever marketing plan if ever one was hatched.

Haha, nah I picked up this: http://www.bunnings....ricedesc&page=3 but with the 2x 1.5's for $50 from a garage sale..

[Scuba-Roo]

i just hope they dont change battery types. hitachi did it, but they make an adaptor so you can use new batteries on your old tools.
