Title: The twins are alive and kicking!
Post by: dave-tx on July 12, 2016, 02:29:45 PM
Finished my builds yesterday - both tested out driving stereo flawlessly.  Monoblock conversion will happen tonight.

The build was easy, I only made two mistakes:
1) Forgot to clip a lead that shorted, causing OA voltage to only be half of what it should have been.  Pretty easy to find once I was looking for it.
2) Knocked one Kaiju off my worktable, metal edge first onto my bare foot.  Probably was lucky not to break anything, but have a foot-sized bruise to show for it.  Pro tip: Don't knock your work off your table.

Will follow up in a couple days once I've played with the monoblock config.

Pro tip #2

wear shoes

Yeow!

Reminds me of when I was in the coffee business and went to pour out a five gallon bucket full of 190 degree water from a coffee maker. Bucket slipped in my hand and I poured a gallon right onto my running shoe. Never untied a shoe so fast in my life. Blisters for days...
