My aluminum evercool and it's little brother.

The big box has two 14500 batteries using the evercool circuit with a TI 8100 regulator and the small one is built on the puck principal, 4 aaa NIMH batteries and all parts bought locally. I think I will call them Skipper and Little buddy.

Really great looking mods pnguin. Nice work.
I like the way you squeezed in the DM.
Aluminum is hard to keep shiny. Have you ever tried Simichrome Polish. I used it on my motorcycle alum. parts before replacing to all chrome.
The polish shines alum. to near chrome finish but requires a lot of elbow grease.

Mothers Mag Polish is great for that also

Hi Pn nice mod im always interested in this area of the forum and seeing all the ideas it has to offer.

Thank you all for the kind words. I stopped at the parts store for some more aggressive rubbing compound to take out the scratches, before I saw your replies. I tired Brasso, the military's choice to polish anything standing still and lots of elbow grease but I think something just for aluminum and chrome will work better. I will go back next week and get some polish.
