    I’d rather add more T taps to the design and watch your eye twitch

    After you did such a beautiful job with those open barrel splices (those fucking things are the bane of my existence), how dare you use T-taps

    Welp, the timer/relay setup worked well to keep the center console outlet on after accessory power was off, which was just a secondary goal for this project. I was hoping that the stupid ass Alpine remote knob just needed to turn off gracefully to stay paired, but nope. I removed both the timer stuff and the knob for now while I decide what I’m doing with them. I’m thinking the timer/relay will get repurposed for a nanny disabler (maybe a plug-n-play option if I get some plugs from @RainMan_PNW soon) and the knob will go in the trash where it belongs.

    I haven’t decided if I’m fully giving up on it yet, but if I do, it’s yours. I’ve got a couple ideas floating around.

    Nope. It’s really just a horrible implementation. It could be so good really easily.

    Hmmm :monocle:



    Also, just typed Stillen into google to make a meme. Was surprised at the results! :thumbsup: -edit: I actually have a pretty creepy college computer cluster story about “stillen”. Remind me to tell you next time we meet up


    Also, so does this mean a 42” DD and Ironman pods are going up for sale? And I assume a new order from hotshot. Maybe even a HF winch?…

    Unfortunately I hadn’t seen any movement on that, so went another route. Hoping it’s everything I dreamed of and more…
