The Eggliners are notorious for having poor power pickup and other solutions (adding skates, installing a capacitor) didn&#8217;t seem to work. So this guy is now running on battery thanks to a 12v rechargeable and a PWM motor driver I picked up cheap.<\/p>\n<p>I needed to do quite a bit of work to get the layout ready for spring. There&#8217;s weeding galore, track maintenance, cleaning up the pond, replacing trees, and more. A couple of kids came out to help and we just let this little guy run the loop while we worked.<\/p>\n<p>Fun<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1207"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1210,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207\/revisions\/1210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/danzbb.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
