Assembly:
- Verify the polarity on the battery cable that it matches the RAK. You may need to
switch the cable around.
- Place the battery inside the main body.
- Place the battery retainer over the battery and screw down with M2.5x8mm screws.
- Mount the RAK to the underside of the lid with the supplied M2.5 screws.
- Mount the supplied BTE antenna to the underside of the lid and attach to RAK.
- Mount the SMA antenna post into the hole in the lid and screw it down with the SMA nut/washer.
- Carefully seal the antenna post hole with JB Weld inside the lid to make watertight.
- Install the antenna on the SMA post.
- Install the antenna sleeve (optional) over the antenna and JB Weld to seal it to the lid.
- Place the lid on top of the cube, and insert the solar panel mount into the cube.
- Place the solar panel onto the mount, and line it up for proper placement where it will not
interfere/run into the antenna.  Mark how it should be placed after being JB Welded.
- Remove the solar panel and mount, and JB Weld the solar panel to the mount liberally.
- Run the power wires from the panel thru the hole in the lid.  JB Weld on the inside to seal 
the hole from water.
