Thanks Ron. I assume you meant to say something like "Cool Project" instead of "Jeff Project" but you'll get no argument from me that "Jeff" and "cool" are synonymous anyway.😉
For now I'm just using an inexpensive 12VNiMH battery from Tenergy. If this works out well, I might ditch that battery and get one of the LiIons from MTO or somewhere else, but I'm on a budget and that system with the charger is pretty salty. I'm not worried about form factor that much, my tender has tons of room reserved for battery. Even with the big speaker.

Ah... I did mean Cool. I have no idea how I did that.

I was just curious if 12V would be enough to move all that metal and anything behind it? I have an 11.1V in my 44Ton but that is small and light. I have 14.8V in each of my F7's and together I have more power than I know what to do with.
