Lightbulb Got bored today

(Kinda long)

And decided I wanted to do something to my xmod, but what?

Did I want to run 4-cells, 5-cells, 6-cells, did I want the lights???

Finally decided 'yes, I want them all' so I sat there and stared at everything for a while and made it fit.

For a few days, I was wondering what those 2 mounting spots in the roof were for, so I decided to use one of 'em to mount a battery holder.Then I went out and got me a light kit... found out what those 2 spots were for.

So, out comes the battery holder, in goes the light kit, lights are cool, gotta keep the lights. But I want more cells so out come the lights and sit there and stare at everything again.

I'd been hearing that both a 6-cell setup and the light kit will not fit, so I made 'em fit. Mounted the battery holder to one post, and the light kit right next to it.

Now, the wiring.

I still want the option of 4, 5, or 6-cell, so back to staring at the thing again. First, I clipped that pesky little black wire, then added a quick disconnect setup and there, it's still a 4-cell. Take the battery holder wires, and add another quick disconnect setup, and rehook the battery holder in line like it goes, and there, a 6-cell setup. But what about a 5-cell? Simple enough, just remove one of the batterys and add a jumper wire between the terminals, and it's a 5-cell setup.

And, everything fits nicely under the body, it's a skyline.

I like to have options, depending on what's going on that day...
