Wondering if a judge sees the top is removable,then loss of points?
As opposed to top not coming off?

How much was the “inside” battery?

Where do they sell them (best price?)

Cut out the bottom leaving the outer edge untouched. I used one of those vibrating blades, a die grinder heats it up too much. Replace it with a Braille, expensive but worth it

What is a Braille?

PS: is your Vette White? I think we have met at PSMCDR...
