Almost entirely held together with blu tack and tape, I’ve got a very rough lighting arangement together on what will eventually be the Land Rover fire engine using the @pimoroni.com Tiny FX controller. Still need a smaller battery solution to get everything on board. #BlueLights

&lt;p class=&quot;text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words&quot;&gt;ah, that would definitely work, i was thinking of some of the tiny 1s batteries used on the micro drones, they charge up to 4.2v and are about the size of a stick of chewing gum or smaller. good times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

From Daniel Hazard at Erie Shores Drone, on Kelleys Island overnight flooding (17"+ rainfall in 6 hours): "Lakeshore Drive near downtown (close to Division St); this is known as the Tiber River, though it flows in a culvert 99% of the time."
