Another item coming together. The charger for the wheat lamp. See post #61 for an original charging panel from the Overloon Otter. A big thanks to another MLU’er for providing me with a dimensional drawing of the mounting plate. The lamp hookup parts were salvaged from the charger that came with the lamp. I also drew up a wiring diagram for how this will be wired up. I’ll be using two adjustable voltage reducers purchased online. I suspect the original was a unique part since it dropped the 12v into two different voltages all contained in one unit.
I’ve also been inspired by David’s electroplating of parts for his wireless restoration. So I’ve ordered the necessary items and look forward to properly refinishing the charger parts.
