Sulaiman and Morgan have been throwing this wonderful Days Like This Friday after-work gig by The Lake for months now. Being that we are Little Bass Heads, Mike and I decided that they needed some more bass (ya’ think?!?) The design specifications we used are as follows:

I changed up the handle on the Bike Party box. The system now includes a single metal “bar handle” on the top and two inset hand-holds on the sides. This should make the box stronger, easier to carry for one person and trivial to carry with two.

1) An on/off button to cut power.
2) A battery monitor that will cut power when the battery declines to 12v or 50% (for lead-acid).
3) A plug to connect the battery recharger to the battery.

(1) JBL Stage 1210 12″ woofer
