McMichael EV team had a breakdown w/ our Electric Fox EV. After a short drive to visit a local sponsor the EV lost all power. Turns out that one of the 8V batteries in the trunk had melted a terminal. Not sure what happened but the terminal had completely melted and the 2/0 connector was making no contact. Luckily we had an extra 8v battery back at the shop and just did a simple replacement. Next week we will check all the terminals and look for problems.
Lucas, Adam, and Hunter replacing the battery w/ melted terminal. When working near 90+ volts always be extremely careful!
