50 o-rings in a HEUI system. Any one of them can lead to a no-start condition. Where will you be when brittle O-rings strike?

This NV4500 is nothing but a core. Also the professionalism at the "transmission shop" that rebuilt this thing putting a chisel on the 5th gear retainer and stripped out the grub screws.

60V? Yeah. Power tool battery. The original system was a 3S 11.1V pack built in 2019 with the rest of the vehicle.

I suspect the several-year-old chassis harness on the 6x6 is getting buggy. So here's a kickin rad update with some extra features.

This Xantrex/Trace inverter would put out 131V.. The Vsense adc was no longer working. Cleaned it up, effected repairs with a mainboard swap from another one that's blown and put it back into service. Up next is rebuilding the blown one..
