Right LP funny enough but not that particular track. I was on side 2 by the time I saw Phil's post. Culinary related though - it has Jambalaya on there as well.....

Currently making some battery packs up for Airsoft from some spare drill packs.
This thing needs 24 volts to run. If I wired up a load of cells in series to get the right voltage how do you go about charging them safely?

If you are using lithium ones you'll need a balance charge lead or a battery management system which should do the same thing.
Using nicads or NiMH just connect then up and charge them they'll be fine.

Opened upthe MGB starter relay to see why it failed, copper must have been a lot cheaper in the early '70's
