tommyk90 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Awesome rebuild steve. One question, I went through the uninterrupted pics thread and didn't notice this: Are the batteries that are underneath strapped down to keep them from moving up and down? Didn't really see anything. Can't wait to see some new vids of EVERYTHING playing.

My concern would be hitting a big bump or something and having the batteries "jump" up and contact that metal plate above them. It's a slim chance because of the weight and the bussbars holding them all together, but meade plays it safe on everything else so I just wondered why he made an exception this time.

It is clearly seen in the build log that he coated the entire bottom of that plate with foam rubber weather stripping.
