[ARC5] [Milsurplus] I Must Have Lost My Mind...

[David Stinson]

I'm with Mike.  I'd like to run it "as designed."  However, the power 
supply has been modified,  but I haven't had the time to take it out of 
the truck and examine the mods.  No idea if it can be recovered to 800 
cycles.  We'll see.
