    The easiest solution would be to make your parts out of brass. I know TCSS has a few pieces made out of brass, but not too many. You could email and ask about getting a custom piece made.

    A little poster putty would also do the trick, and you'd be able to remove the speaker if it ever became necessary to replace it.

    Our eyes don't perceive brightness on a linear scale. It's more akin to a logarithmic scale. Standing inside a well-lit office building seems roughly as bright (to your eyes) as standing outside on...

    You can get 12v in a NiMH setup. 1.2v x 10 cells = 12v. As for li-ion, you'll be getting 14.8v in a 4 cell setup, or 11.1v in a 3 cell setup (uncommon).
