They do make UV fiberglass but sorry I meant to say bondo is what I used on top of the reg. fiberglass. iirc a can this size was about $20. I got it at Canadian Tire, it shouldn't be too hard to find elsewhere...

If you want some flex to the design, or shapely inside to your box check out UV fiberglass. Spread it out in the shade then drag it into the sun to cure. Just like reg. fiberglass it has a sweet spot in it's curing time to sand then sets up really hard but remains flexible. It might be smart to...

For fiberglassing over cloth I've always just used old t-shirts. But I only buy the cloth and matt and use a super-hard 1:1 marine expoxy for resign. Get a roll of shrink wrap for wrapping skids and do the whole area on the bike you want to glass. Stretch the tshirts over and secure them. Cut...

I ordered some of those for replacement cells and got verification that they are the same cells Cammy-c V-Power has been using who has mixed reviews with rarely anyone getting full capacity in a prebuilt pack with bms. Hobby King is selling them with tabs attached which is nice but more $...

Batteries Plus is USA only and I've tried in town and searched Toronto area. But I found a place called Total Battery in Barrie and I have to go there next week anyways to visit a client. Thanks for the input! I did take electrical tape and made it work temp. with black duct tape over all of it...

New cells arrived yesterday!! Has anyone used conductive epoxy for a job like this? I searched and JB weld won't do it but I'm trying to source an epoxy like this today; http://www.directindustry.com/prod/master-bond/electrically-conductive-epoxy-adhesive-17407-198093.html Any draw backs. I...

You guys heard of Blacklight Power? www.blacklightpower.com I posted the only thread on this board in "spam" but I'm hoping this is much more than that ;)

This cvt hub would be pretty cool too with an RC motor and large front sproket. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVPjhmTThPo

I already thought so but they look like the same cells to me. Looks can be deceiving though :?: F is the only marking on them.

Ebay seller was more than resonable and made a special buy it now option with my ebay name right in the title. They are on route. I found an online how to on soldering these together. I've also found numerous quotes saying not to solder the ones without tabs. I'll have 2 extra to mess up, wish...

I went ahead and bought these cells http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120578648823&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT Dude made a special auction just for me :lol: It's all good well it will be when I fig out the best method of getting it back together with limited resources. I'll...

Got 2 replies from CammyCC He confirmed that they are the same cells offered from US seller that they've always used. He did offer to replace "the bad cell" Here's what I don't get is he asked if I could charge the battery without the bms? I didn't think it would be possible to revive a cell...

Mighty Volt sure when I pull them out. I'll take some better close up pics and measure them but that sure looks similar to me.

I wouldn't expect him to replace them without charge, since it was my own fault here. Ebay seller above got them from CammyCC VPower and offered a price of under $60 for 15 and could I have them in days. I never thought for a minute they were A123, that's a US based company with nice cells I...
