I wouldn't be surprised if at one point in time, the cover comes off from a hit or wreck or freak alignment of the stars and planets, the battery comes disconnected and the vehicle runs away screaming ahhhhhhhhhh full throttle until it flips, breaks, hits something or runs out of gas. All because you wanted a little easier access. I know it sucks sometimes and not every car is built with ease of maintenance in some locations, but they are there for a reason. But its your choice.

And that's why I love this hobby so much, the ideas we come up with.
My idea doesn't sound as good to me now...HAHAHA

I will have to figure out another way to make it easier to remove my battery after a run, or for charging.

Thanks Jerm, even though these little magnets are super strong, Murphy law comes into play, especially with me...
