Whoops!
I went to check the voltage across the main power on the Sparrow (it's about 170 volts DC) and I hallucinated the red was black:
PUh-WHZT!
And fried the voltmeter. Guess I gotta schedule some time and dollars to make it so I don't do that again. The car drives fine, thanks, it's just the 1950s era voltmeter that has tested its last.
Amazingly I know what a voltmeter is ;)
ReplyDeleteHope all is well!
Heh!
ReplyDeleteAnd now I know what one sounds like when it fries!
I was getting such a kick out of using 50 year-old technology, too. I hate when I make landfill like that.
Oh well, at least I can hand it in to the escrap recyclers on Saturday.
