Ammo Can Speaker Kit 2.0

I bought this for a dear friend and he absolutely loves it. I can’t say much about the building process, but it already has a name - “Jammunition”

What size of plug does it need to charge? I got one as a gift a while back and lost the AC Adapter and can't find a replacement without hauling that in with me

I received this as a gift a couple of years ago. Fun building and great quality. However, I have misplaced the power cord. Can I get a replacement?

My wife got me this gift for Christmas. I did ‘upgrade’ the assembly and drilled and mounted the amp and battery boards to the lid with nylon spacers to allow for extra ‘cooling’ since I live in the desert and didn’t want the chance of overheating since it will also be carried in my Jeep in our desert sun. Possible option for others out there, which I got the idea from someone else on your comments section of your website. Nice ‘finish’ to the project instead of the funky Velcro. Overall, fun project that puts out some great sounds.
So I used #6-32 1 inch stainless (for rust control and overall looks) bolts, washers, lock washers, nylon lock nuts (to hold due to any vibration carrying it in my Jeep so nothing will back off), and fiber washers for the outside of the lid for extra weather/moisture control. Also 1/2 inch nylon spacers to ‘lift’ the control boards away from the lid to allow air and heat control since I live in the hot desert. I used part of the package speaker cardboard as a template to drill the 8 holes out. Worked great. It took about another hour of assembly time, but came out nice and tight so worth the little bit of extra time.
A heads up. 3 of the nuts for the battery board had to have one edge ‘grind down’ a bit so they fit on the bolt between it and the battery box itself. When assembling it, just hold the nut with your wrench and turn the bolt with your screwdriver. You’ll be glad you took the extra effort. Not a big fan of the Velcro, so to me then result was tight and the way it should be to begin with.
Only other thing they need to make available is speaker grills to protect them on your adventures with it. Overall, fun project and great sound. Already have friends and family looking into their own. Enjoy, as I am…

For a mechanic, amateur radio operator, automotive electrician and retired Fire/Medic this was a great gift. The instructions need a little revision. There is a bag with two black and two red tinned wires, however no idea what they are for. Also, there bridging clips / jumpers on the socket where the volume control plugs in, no mention in instructions to remove. I did not like the Velcro option, so I used a #8 x 32 tap and threaded the four holes in the battery tray and the four holes in the Blue Tooth / Amp board. Next I made a cardboard template to mark the lid, make sure the antenna connection is close to the hinge! I drilled eight holes in the lid and used HILLMAN #8 x 32 x 1 inch round head machine screws (Part number 491425 @ Lowes total price for 2 packages $2.50) and two HILLMAN 3/8 x .171 x 1/4 inch nylon spacers (Part number 880430 @ Lowes total price for 8 packages $5.75) for each of the eight holes. I used a total of 8 bolts and 16 nylon washers to give air space off of the lid. I turned the Boom Box on . . . and nothing!! The batteries were dead, so the are charging while I'm listening to my project. A great project, however the builder better be able to think outside of the box as he or she is building the Boom Box.
