BATTLECAT

Just a quickie note to the TB brethren to radiate my joy at having my beloved BattleCat restored to full combat lethality from the team at MESA after this veteran died in full early December after six years in the trenches! I have a number of 800-1500w heads and only one gets first use when available… this one. Has for six years now.

It’s seen more action than I care to say and my treatment of it over time has been less than stellar, so when it gave up on me I was reluctantly ready to write it off, but I took a chance and sent it in. Several weeks later it’s back in business thanks to the pros at MESA, and for just a bit over $100 including shipping.

Why I choose MESA and will continue to do so.

Hey, I get it. When you need to chock a tire, you need to chock a tire.

That is some awesome patina. I love the writing on it, too. It just screams "MOJO!!!".
Hey, @agedhorse, here's an idea: relic'd amps. You're welcome. :laugh:
