Watts Up Meter Mounting
LiL Update
Been taking it easy waiting for the new speed controller to arrive...found out
today it only left Miami yesterday so chances of getting it this week are
slim to none...Not to impressed with TNC Scooters i give you the tip, they
emailed me 2 days ago telling me it was sent on the 20th the lying *****s...
So...I decided i would make a mount for my Watts Up meter today,
i didn't want to mount it on the handle bars, keeping the wire length
short is advantageous PLUS the thicker wire i will be using to hook up the
electrics wont be so pliable and might restrict the movement of
the handle bars.
Here's a couple of pics of what i knocked up (final assembly i will replace
the bolts with allen key variety and cap screws)-->

Once its powder coated and not hurriedly brushed over with metal primer paint
i think it will be more appealing
I have also been procrastinating the battery mounting situation, as i will be
ultimately buying a Lifpo4 pack i really don't want to weld mountings to the f
rame to suit the larger dimensions of the 4x12volt slas as i wont be mounting
the Lifepo4s in the same position it will interfere with the future planned addition
of bottom bracket/pedals....more on that tomorrow...
