It's a voltage controlled switch. Once voltage gets above a set point it engages the relay. It's so the engine starts and charges the primary battery then the relay engages to send juice to the auxiliary/house batteries.

Nothing. It's used as a buzzword. Apparently, it worked. :ROFLMAO: Just like 'Digital TV antenna'......

Not a charge controller, just a battery isolator relay.

Not to rain on the parade, but a tubular lock is easier to pick than most other locks - other than a Masterlock. Also, if there is easy access to the wires behind it, it's not really doing anything. That being said, it'll stop 99.9% of the people that are looking for a quick joyride. I think...

I'm used to more commercially viable units, but yes, if feeding a trigger to a relay that should work. Also, when posting Amazon links, all that crap after the all caps is tracking info. The correct URL would be https://www.amazon.com/Timer-Delay-Relay-Cycling-Trigger/dp/B01HNDOCKK...

Already fixed. :D https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/the-weeniewagun-v3.205898/post-2532460

Sorry, don't mean to threadjack, but seems like you have experience with this... Is this kinda what you heard or something difference? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1CrzsTXPDNA

I got a loud ticking but everything is spotless. Goes with RPM and disappears when not under load. :D

Rules say I can't post auction links, but this isn't an auction ... @MODS please have mercy on me for posting an Ebay link :p https://www.ebay.com/itm/256054369870

Colony Tire has them as well for around the same price.

What symptoms did you have with the blown gaskets?

Gotta love shops. 'We screwed up your truck, hurry up and get it out of here'... They're paying for repairs, right? RIGHT?!

I believe those are a European tire, primarily designed for offroad - not on road. Probably a very soft compound with horrible on-road life. https://www.goodyear.eu/content/dam/goodyear/truck/pdfs/en_offroad_2022.pdf

More accurate than .mil vehicle fuel gauges 99% of the time.

IMO you're better off running it from a time delay relay. They're pretty common, and wait a (usually programmable) amount of time before de-energizing after the vehicle is switched off. This will allow some loads to remain on, for short trips away from the truck, like if you're charging a phone...

Decided it needed to be taken out to work out any bugs. 20 miles of back roads and 15 miles of highway and 5 back roads on the way back. win some... lose some. Idle seems to be a bit low... hovering around 400..Could explain the god awful racket under the hood. Getting up to 500rpm kills the...

Today was an excellent day (after work) to get some work done on the truck. Started cleaning out the toolbox that's built into the truck. Removed a bunch of the old wiring left by the fire department - need to finish that up tomorrow morning and tie the other wires back up. Busted my lip...

Overcomplicating things just a wee bit.

Modern 1 ton diesel pickups have higher GCWR than deuce. :D
