Financial Lifeboat badly needed. Donation would be great but Could be in the form of a substantial short-term loan. The vehicle has received tremendous small medium and large upgrades over the last nine months and longer that have made it ever so much more robust. Doing so has cost every penny and more but it has been worthwhile. I am totally willing to let this thing die but not prematurely and it would be premature now. So I'm prepared to go even deeper into debt but I'm putting the word out there that if you know anyone that has substantial Financial Reserves that won't hurt themself to contribute either a donation or a loan it would be extremely timely right now. A $700 battery is now dead. Unknown why. But it's dead. Recent climbs here in the Rockies have shown me that it is past time to have a more powerful., $600, motor mid vehicle. And there are ongoing issues, unknown cause as of yet that are causing solar panels to fail. The mission needs $1,000 to keep afloat right now. If you know anyone that would like to help without hurting themselves, which I will not allow, now would be an excellent time to let me know. I'm almost certain that the answer is no, but it would be irresponsible of me not to put the word out. James
