    She laughed...

    I was thinking of doing a doppleganger photo with me in a hoody and billed cap, and holding a stuffed animal, same pose as you holding the fish. Too weird.

    After 48 years, Some of the morons at the shops were untrainable. So it was “retrain on Monday”.

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!!

    I always used to take my soldiers on a longer run at PT on Mondays to burn off all that extra alcohol they had in their systems. Now, I punish myself by making my morning workout on the treadmill harder and longer.

    A little something every chance we get.
    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals & Gals! Someone took away our Spring, and replaced it with cold and ugly. Will barely break 50* today, 40*s tomorrow, with spotty rain next two days. Oh well. Going to look at some wiring for one of the wife's friends this afternoon. That will be inside.

    Well the auxiliary battery will last for weeks, it's only running the auxiliary lights and phone. The main battery will go at least 20 miles at 30 mph throttle only, longer if I pedal.

    Got some nice fold away mirrors for the bike.
    20220306_122619.jpg
    I moved the display to the center of the bar to make room for the left mirror.
    20220306_163539.jpg
    I got the top case in. It's a quick release.
    20220306_124036.jpg
    Mounting plate is on. When the box is removed it still leaves me with a nice rear rack that I can bunji things too.

    My son and I got the "Desert Does It" seat jackers and under-seat air compressor mounted.

    Quality it first-rate.

    Uh oh, great idea, but we are too tall (6'3" and 6'5") to make use of the seat-jackers—great idea, like having the air compressor inside out of the way.

    So jackers and air compressor mount will sadly go back.

    Newport Vessels Trolling Motor Smart Battery Box Power Center with USB and DC Ports
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AE2TG7G?

    Added a Blue Sea additional USB & Dedicate ARB Plug (threaded in so can not pop out while on the road) and extra cigarette lighter plug for CPAP.
    Redarc 2540 charger bolted to the side. The charger accepts 12V vehicle, or solar input, keeping the 100AH Battle Born LiIon battery charged.

    I didn't want the battery under the hood (too much heat) but portable for fridge and CPAP use (going four days without power last year was a challenge).

    Jackery 1000 is more straightforward but more expensive.



    Next weekend will be an LED headlight upgrade and SSD3 fogs.
