  • I like your bodge.

    People who didn't get the purpose of the glue are clearly a bit hard of thinking.

    (Or just bitter forum heads chomping at the bit to post a snarky reply in what is generally one of the nicest threads on the forum)

  • Not sure its the intention of the hobby hot glue thats the logic hurdle here, champ.

    All fun and games until theres a 4kg battery flying about a busy CW1 or deciding to eject and cause a spill in heavy traffic.

  • Like I said, it's easily a great deal more robust than one that was never munted. Not sure why that isn't apparent... Originally the flimsy plastic base was slightly reinforced by a flimsy bit of ally sandwiching the plastic by three bolts. Now there's a 3mm bit of ally plate running all the way across and along under the retention clips, and the three bolts are holding the glue ridges in compression (because I did it with washers in place) against the tube. It's solid as fuck.

    Pretty sure the melting point is above what's necessary. Especially now that I soldered a wire inside the battery which was just twisted together for some reason, and had started to melt its way through the bottom...

  • Ah, the bitter head in question. Fuck off, champ.
