I don’t have a “before” picture, but here’s the current state. We still have some final touches, like building a table to put chargers/batteries on. But this gives a good idea of what the final product will be like.
The old panel was located under the “Safety First” sign in between the studs.
This is nice. We do most of our flying at a sod farm in eastern PA. All battery charging comes from car batteries or from one of those portable chargers. A nice thing with gliders is that as you get better, there’s less time used on the electric motor which is the big current draw on an electric glider, and therefore fewer batteries to charge.
