    Exciting! Good call on the KnuKonceptz gear, some high quality components there.

    Yes
    Yes
    and
    Yes

    My wife had said it was ok to get.
    Then I told her how much it cost.
    She said, " If your going to spend that much then you are going to Utah."

    They aren't SDHQ, like @Supr4Lo, but then, they weren't that price point either. I'm too cheap to go that nice! The KnuKonceptz will still do the job I need them to do.

    Well, that sucks!

    Dan, if you want a mount for your battery cutoff switch, I should have plenty of aluminum left. Now that I have the pattern, it wouldn't take much to make another.

    Learned of an app for my phone that has a mode for stars, decided to give it a shot. First attempt was decent. Definitely learned some things to make it better next time. Not sure how well they'll look after compression on here, should probably create a flickr account so I can post full res here.

    Nothing wrong with a less expensive alternative. I sometimes don't put a lot of time into researching different products. Mostly because I find myself needing it after the fact so I end up spending more for convenience.

    The bracket you made for the switch looks great by the way!
