GGTS parts at COV

[inquisitorj]

Imeo,

I know you have 10,000 different things you are trying to do at one time, but I have a question for you. When are you going to have more positive center post pins sent to Bruce?

My girlfriend has an Aluminum "To My Friend" model with the AVS V2 and she bent her positive center post pin. I have a SS GGTS and UFS so I am lending her my pin from my catch tank that came with my SS GGTS.

The porblem is that I just bought an iatty, and now I cannot use it on my GGTS till I get a replacement pin.

i can do that ing but how your girl managed to bend the pin? Thats impossible

She was using Tenergy LiFeP04 batts for 6V. Apparently she was tightneing the crap out of the GG and there was just enough sideways give that it was bending. She ruined the batts as well . I Just got here some AW LiFep04's and showed her how tight it needs to be. She also has the SS pin, so she shouldn't be able to bend that one.

Do you work with tools at all, because it sounds like maybe a clamp and hammer may do the trick.

Inq, I still insist that its impossible to bend the pin even if you use big pliers to tighten the GG. Maybe the only that got damaged is the plastic part? Can you check again buddy?

Checked again. The Aluminum pin is definitely bent. I am sure that someone that knows how to work with metals could probably fix it. I was able to straighten the shaft, but the head is still tweaked at an angle (that sounded kind of dirty and painful). I can't seem to get a good picture of it though.

No problem inq. I will send a new one to Bruce
