I just turned the system back on and all is well. It seems the PIC's are
rugged little chaps after all.

There's a bit of battery acid splashed here and there, so I would
envisage a total rebuild just in case. The crystal is now sporting a
nice head of fuzzy stuff and could do with a trim.

Considering these boards were all prototypes, hand made and have heaps
of mods patched all over the back of them, they didn't do too bad.

I'm pretty sure I can simplify the design and use a single board with
one 16F877 in control, but my guess is, now that the LEDs lit up, they
will want to use it again ;-)
