Re:Cskate asbox - 08:00 31 Mar 08Watch the bike battery. They don't hold their charge as well as car batteries ('cos they're smaller). I charge mine at least once a month over winter or they die. If it arrives and doesn't work, get it to me if you want 'cos I have an expensive trickle charger which will be our best bet of getting it going.! Skate Monkey !

Re:Cskate asbox - 23:04 09 Apr 08Thanks to; MCS, for delivering the rest of the parts I needed. Chez, for the speakers. Merry, for the speakers, DB, for the batteries and Mic bits etc.
I tried both sets of speakers, initially Merry's sound better BUT I think that is down to them being already boxed, Chez's speakers work fine, I tested them completely unboxed sitting on a surface on their backs. I am going to go with Chez's speakers because once boxed I think they will be the better speaker for this project. I have started to cut wood so we shall soon find out. Merry, do you want yours back?, if not I'll put them to one side and probably make a MKII later on.
DB, MCS has warned me to be careful when trying to recharge your battries and so I have not tried, do you know what conditions they should be recharged under? I am not going to worry to much about the mic as I think we can work that out later and input it into either the same jack or I'll make another one in parallel. Oh I did get a small motorbike batterry and it looks like 3A hour, it works but I just don't know how long it will last.When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

You are welcome to keep the speakers - they were heading to the Dump so I won't be offended if you use them or dump them I\'llNEVERpostontheforums

HERE is their technical manual, pages 18 to 27 cover charging... in quite a lot of detail After my car accident (not my fault) it's now cheaper for me to cancel my car insurance early and take out another year with someone else! - Twitter Status
