Well, due to the usual delays of business travel, pulled muscle, Thanksgiving and shopping for Christmas, not much was done until this weekend.
I was able to trim the battery boxes to a lower height – making a much better fit in the various compartments. Apparently, the trick is to use a carbide blade with 60 to 80 bits in the power saw. Worked great!
I also started working on the battery interconnects. I’m looking into flat braided copper cable, with silver-solder for the ends. However, I’m not happy with the way the ends have worked out – I don’t think they are flat enough yet. This will take some tinkering to figure out.
