weeeell, not really, lol
thats who makes my cover
this is my latest 5v nimh mod
made from an 8-cell aa battery holder
set up with a small tank and running a 1.5/1.6 dcc
i used a horn button (modded) cause they work and i lovem !
i also added a plug-in for my voltage indicator so it doesnt
have to be mounted permanently
i used the 4-cell setup for a while but needed more
been using this for over a month now and not a single issue
here are some numbers :
last night, before i went to bed, i changed my batts (5-aa-1.2v nimhs-2300mah)
didnt check the power, but usually starts out around 5.3v-5.5v under dcc load
i took a few toots then went to bed
i start hitting it as soon as i get up (6am), then many times throughout the day
i just got home (6pm), decided to check power and got 5.1v under dcc load
i usually change them when i get about 4.8v under dcc load to stay in my range
this time period is about 1.5 days
so imho, the only hangup with aa-nimhs is size, which to me is subjective, lol
its pretty simple but aint simply pretty, lol, but i hope yall like it

note : i think i got some pics loaded but my skills suck and i couldnt get all of them to go...
the other side of my mod holds 2 additional batts for 5 total, i give up on the pics, lol
