Upcoming Experiment
By Rants&Raves on Dec 23, 2006 in Automotive, General
So I was on the way back from Memphis and my coke can got pretty warm pretty quick…Kinda bummed out actually. I would take a sip every now and then – and soon enough my drink was too warm to drink. Who likes a hot coke? Not I. So I decided I am going to take out the section of plastic that covers the top of the console. This is a relatively small piece upon examination…about 1 foot across and about 2-3 feet long. It will be easy to pop off with a few clips and maybe a screw or two holding it in place…and then I am going to take a Dremel kit and cut off the bottom of the cupholders as evenly as possible and replace the bottoms with this:

It keeps beverages cool. I don’t drink coffee and I rarely drink any hot/warm beverages so I don’t really care to have anything to keep my drinks hot.
It will also require http://www.xpcgear.com/usbhubuh204d.html which is an AC powered (I will make it into DC.. hehe) USB hub for the greatest amount of voltage.
I will make another post letting you know how it turned out.
No updates yet to report.
