I've been threatening to give the 150 I bought a few months back a new home. Well, since it's been so hot around here, I thought it would be a good time to get after it!! Here's the 150's new home. I had to gut the interior first to get the frilly stuff out.

Here's the 150 all stripped down and ready to move in.

Now with any new home there has to be some renovation. The 150 required some new wiring so it communicate with the outside
world.

Here's the 150 all move in and hooked up. Of course now it want's to go to the lake and get wet. We'll just have to wait till next weekend, Heck, the silicone sealent's not even dry yet.

So, the new "Otter Ace" will just have to sit on the patio for awhile till we can head for the lake.

This is not the final configuration for the Otter Ace. Once I get the grip from John Edmonton and some tubing from Skillet, I hope to get it mounted on a straight shaft with the Otter Ace mounted under the arm cuff, but that's another weekend. I'm just glad I got it put together without frying the board. Shoot, even BigCatMomma was impressed I didn't end up with a big box of scrap parts.
 
I have a Tiger Shark and would love to have *some* target identification. When do you plan to try it out? Keep us posted!!

Quite a project BCD. Good looking, functional, piece of equipment and a novel innovation. You done good.

That would be quite a sight, wouldn't it!! I hope mine just survives the first test run this weekend. Skillet thinks I should bring a basket along to put all the electrocuted fish in. I get no faith from that boy!!
