Just search foam and the rest is pretty self explanatory.

BTW, nice job linc!

Thanks Texas, you are a widget...

Well, 20 amps at 14v is 280watts. Not sure if that is how you figure it out...

I actually like that compliment. :party:

I guess my years procuring all sorts of crap have paid off......

Sorry, meant that you are the coil thingy in the bottom of a can of guiness beer...

Still, I could have called you worse, but not much if we were on the traxxas forum...

Well done

That Guinness contraption is a great invention. It makes my Guinness all frothy just like draft and I get the cool cascading effect. BTW Guinness is my favorite beer.

They also have that contraption in Boddington's Pub Ale which I really like as well. Lighter than Guinness but still has a full flavor. I don't drink weak tasteless beer, only the good stuff for this boy.

Yeah, but if you can't feel/hold it, it's hard to know for sure it's the right stuff.

About the PS: 14v @ 20A is indeed 280w, but you have to figure in charger efficiency of around 80%, so you only have about 224w available to get to the batteries...

Great Job James.. As always.. :intello:

They have descriptions of the firmness of the foam on there and comparisons to everyday items to assist. Of course you could also order some small sample pieces of a few to aid your choice. Should only cost a few bucks.

Thanks Shaun, not quite at your level (complete patio construction) yet, but I am getting there!

Hmm, comparisons to everyday items, huh. I wonder what those items are???

"This foam feels squishy, kinda like a big ole pair of......"

Cushions? :whistle:

Arct1k 10.01.2008 02:54 PM

Have you used it yet - those 5i get warm when charging bigger packs - that foam will act as a pretty good insulator - Do you use the LBA10 data link?

Something like that, bumpers maybe...

I have not used it much, but I have enough wire length that I can lift them out to get better airflow... Mostly we will be charging 1800 and 2100 3s packs...

Ok Linc,
Now that you've completed this bad boy :intello:, what's next on your list Sir..:neutral: :wink:

When are we going to see some vid of one of your 38 builds :lol: :wink:

Well, I am trying to get both of my Bomb Proof maxx trucks finished. And I have another erevo to build, as soon as the chassis shows up. And I am working on a crawler, axail axle based, most likely with a modded pede tranny (cause I have everything) and a custom made chassis, based on a Gatekeeper GC-1. And about 10 other trucks to finish...

I will get around to doing some vids eventually...
