 this directly off solar panels I have a cloud right now looks like once that one passes that probably got 10 or 15 minutes of full power it's coming out not bad for a completely unregulated power supply all right the bottom it's all welded together there I got the front welded on too I definitely used more welding sticks than I would have in ideal situation part of it is just I'm out of practice with stick welding and on top of that you know having an unregulated power supply I think I needed more current because the arc distance was real small so there's a real tiny window of distance I could anyway doesn't matter I think it's pretty strong should be good and I went back and forth over the side pieces here a few times just to reinforce it maybe I should do more welding on this thing there was a significant improvement in skill by the end I do that much more might actually be kind of decent out of again oh look at that looks a little great that's nice
