Maybe fixed

Okay so I don’t know much about electronics but I needed the phone to work, the last was a test message.

I took my old broken charger from the phone and tested it’s output with a meter. The output was less then the battery output, and my battery is dead. I thought perhaps that if I connect the positive and negative to the battery terminals, squeeze the battery back in, and plug in the second charger it might work. I don’t think I could hurt anything since the voltage is lower, well, guess what, it works, Mcgiver strikes again! The phone needs to have 2 chargers plugged in, but what the hell right?

I don’t know if I should slow the boat down, I guess Ill make the decision in the morning. I don’t want to make landfall at night. I’ve got 97.3 miles to go and its 4pm.

I turned on my refrigeration today and had the first cold beer in more then a month, YUMMMM. I’ve got two lines out and hopefully I’ll get a big fish or two to keep me in food for a few when I get to Hive Oa.

I’m hoping I don’t fry the phone.
