Charger idea
 
Hey, has anyone tried to use like a head phone jack to charge with? like it would plug into the side of the car (like a gas pump) and charge the bit? also, you could have it ravel up like the MS anteannas. heres a pic, cause my explaining stinks.

It could be done, but it would add more weight to the car.

This would be almost ideal if you were building a monster-bit where you couldn't get the bottom of the car near the charging pad.

You could take a clone and drill out the screw-hole in the bottom to accept a 1/8th inch phono-jack, then you just have to make some contacts, and wire it to your battery clips. The down-side is that you wouldn't be able to do an 'Internal Two Battery' on it unless you do the Layman's dual batt.

Or You could do about the same thing with it over the heatsink, and drill out a giant 'gas filler' in your body. But you'd probably have clearance issues with a body.

thanks, i was wondering if clearance would be a problem. For my ricer car i might do this just for the "gas pump" effect when charging:D
