If I can build a B&W G4, you can underclock a G5.

Did you get the conversion kit to allow the use of lignite coal? IIRC, Smurfs were originally powered exclusively with anthracite, but later revs allowed the use of bituminous coal, and that all models required the conversion kit to use the more volatile lignite coal. Good luck.

You sir, are a true renaissance man. You harvest the blubber with family heirloom flensing knives?

New PRAM battery worked!
Arrived in a box big enough for a hundred of them, but I'm not complaining.
