    newbie here.

    I'm about to pull my and my partner's batteries apart and replace some modules.

    Before I order a few new hobby chargers, does anyone in Portland have any they'd be willing to lend or sell me? I've already thoroughly checked OfferUp/FBmarketplace/Craigslist.

    Same for spare modules.
    Or if you know a good source other than eBay.

    Thanks a lot! I can't wait to get started.

    I'm up in Olympia and have a charge and discharge rig that allows you to charge 7 modules while also discharging 7 modules at the same time. It's very efficient and I have lots of spare gear. I'd be willing to loan the rack if you can help fix it up, which mostly means wiring up the discharge bulb system where its fallen apart, as well as replacing the bad multi-testers...

    I have spare bulbs, chargers and multi testers, just don't have the time to work on it. So if you think you might have enough skills to fix it up and make it way nicer and more sturdy in trade for borrowing it, maybe we can work something out?
