Mr. Motorman m3 mod - mitzalplik - 01-27-2025
I modified an m3 engine by removing the two 1/3 AAA Ni-Mh in series with a new (to me) 10280 rechargeable lithium ion battery.
I also modified the m3 engine charger to charge the lithium ion battery bypassing the circuit board.

Nice work Mitza. May I ask the question, What does this change make?
RE: Mr. Motorman m3 mod - mitzalplik - 01-27-2025
More variable power selection (3.6v vs 2.4v) more consistent power (uphills, multiple trucks, taking corners) as Li-Ion has more current output than ni-mh. Better capacity storage hold from Ni-Mh. And better capacity consistency when charging (no more memory problems).

Sounds good Mitza although all over my head LOL 😁
