My plan was to give you pictures and details on my mods & more mods today. Please give me another day. THANKS!
SCEPTER [Single-purpose, Cycling Experiences, Pan & Tilt, Event Recorder] is evolution in motion. After picking up a stereo extender cord, a grommet, solder, and other miscellaneous items and then installing the cord, the grommet, and power cord for the panohead, there was not sufficient daylight for good photographs.
In addition, I added a junction box to shield the connection from weather and make a better presentation. In my box of “stuff” I have 2 OtterBox 3600, with one cable-pass-through kit. I think my box is vintage ‘96 [no longer being sold, and I need another cable-pass-through kit]. I’ll call Monday and if they are no longer available, I will improvise.
Anyway, it gives me the modularity and protection I want. Plus, it looks good.
I owe you on what I’ve done with the parabolic microphone, the SCEPTER containers, and now the “junction box.” Trying for Sunday, 12/13. We are to have rain. Oh yes, those of you who have been checking my WebCam Page have seen much of what I have done. The cameras have been trained on my work.
Also, to do—a case exhaust fan.
I just completed the text [4:30 a.m. EST]. Remaining are the pictures to take. The article will be published today. –jim
No cable-pass-through kit from OtterBox or any place I can find on the Internet–improvised. It works for me. Wednesday, with the new camera, I’ll add the single remaining wire–the camera power cord. –jim
