The bow worked fine!

I had to go get a drink too, Svein. The more I drink, the punnier it gets! I heard that it never made it to the general market because they had to charge too much. Bowfishing became terribly expensive, as it required a second boatman with a spare power source. Nobody wanted to be saddled with a salt and battery charge.

Plus you needed this:   :jumper:

Do you need a voltage meter to check the poundage?  

And it has it's own draw check, if you draw too far it trips the breaker.

I am shocked that the gadget lovers couldn't keep the themselves charged up about such a good bow.

I designed one last winter.  I was planning on starting Ohm-I Archery Inc.  With the first (and flagship) model being called the "Kilowatt".

Accuracy was a major concern that kept lumen around.

Arrows would arc and either ground out or flashover.

Personally, I blamed Impedance.


(Best I got, sorry.  Original post got me pretty good though).

This post definetly transformed my day and generated a lot of interest! Even my tulip bulbs lit up when I read it to them. Guess they got a charge out of it! You may have to explain it to the Ohio boys, they are not very bright and it may take a nuclear event to get a reaction out of them. OK, I'm DUNN!

You should've stayed current with the amount of resistance you would generate! Tradgangers don't always follow the path of least resistance! Sorry, not feeling well today and my mind ran away with my common sense  :knothead:
