It's strange to think that a peaceful nation like yours could invoke the wrath of the Muslim nation like America. Looks like they guy is a native to Norway, and that he hated muslims, so lets not going around saying this is based off of religion, when there is no proof of religion even being involv...

Not to sound too snarky, but get a different iron? I picked up an adjustable one for cheap that gets HOT if I need it to. Did you try soldering wick/bread to remove the solder, might help. But if you can't get the solder hot enough with your iron to melt it, it's going to be hard to remove it. I wou...

General rule is you can up the voltage and capacitance, not down. I start by upping the voltage, and if that doesn't work, up the capacitance. That's just my preference though. Following those rules I haven't had a problem yet!

On digikey they are under aluminum...

Dont beat your self up over the fact you went elsewhere to get your box done, time constraints, pain in the ass 45's, can lead a skilled man to hand the ball over.......so saying that, Id like too say that this dude you found looks like he knows what hes doing and then some...that box is built like...

Electronics alcohol in the spray can. Should be 99%. Then spray it on, and scrub it off softly with something like a tooth brush. That should take off anything that's on there. Something like this: http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/TECHSPRAY-1610-P-/20-2135 As for the brown stuff, almost looks l...

lol....calm down son....I didn't mean to insult your router, or you. Cool, thats why I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, especially not a "random" internet person. The internet sucks for trying to convey emotions, so what is truly intended behind words is very hard to tell with...

Ya, after seeing all the guy drama around here, I edited my comment as I seemed like an ass, and didnt want to cause any more drama that's already here

All I have to say is that Joerg schooled us all from our home connections, that's for DAMN sure!

Ok, figured it out. Wifi. Any device on wifi (802.11g, 802.11n won't have this issue) will be limited to around 12mbps, since I am not the only one with that number... http://www.speedtest.net/result/1335576690.png From a wired connection, it's much better :D I connected to my 802.11g access point ...

From a wired connection, it's much better

Damn, them some good pipes! Gotta love government funded connections!

:lol: Well, that was the speed of the connection I was posting from, so it's not like I cheated :D http://www.speedtest.net/result/1335552196.png That's my home speed, which is lame :lol: The upload ain't bad, but the download sucks. I think I need to look into that, I am paying for a 22mbps connect...

Pusses When are you all gonna get some real speed



Gotta love "100mbps" both ways

I agree... WTF??? Do tell!!

I guess I should also explain what is in my car right now as well, since the oil pressure sensor is throwing you off a little. I just reread what you said, and I think I should clarify a bit more... Right now in my car my oil pressure sensor only has one wire, the one for the idiot light. The one wi...

As long as your starter isn't going to cause enough oil pressure to disable the starting battery while it is turning over... that seems like a neat idea! That's what the relay on the right is for, it's connectrd to the starting circuit, to make sure that as long as the starting circuit is active, t...

Where are you looking? Most purpose built 200 amp battery isolators are $50 or less? I struggle to find ones over $100. Hell, here's a BNIB PG diode isolator for $50 shipped: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320557089229 I kinda see your point about using the oil pr...

Well, the main reason I don't want the isolator to be on when the accessories are on or if the engine is not running is because what happens if I leave the keys in accidentally and drain BOTH batteries? Wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose? I also only want the starting battery connected to the sy...

I should also give credit where credit is due. I didn't come up with the idea behind the diagram, I just modified it to fit my needs and car. I got it from "Idea 4" on this website: http://www.junkyardgenius.com/charging/dual01.html I just realized in my tired state that I forgot to mentio...

Ok I will sum it up, bear with me I am tired, so I might come back and edit it later :lol: So the oil pressure switch has 3 prongs on it. The prong going to the idiot light in the dash is NOT grounded and not on when the oil pressure rises about 5 psi, and grounded when it is lower than 5 psi or the...

Well, $$ for one, and I like homebrew shit, so if I can do it myself, then I will go that route :o I am basically buying a battery isolator, a 200 amp stinger relay, but not buying all the "stuff" that comes with a $100+ "isolator" you buy off the shelf, just the part that matter...

I am just going to link to my post in my install thread where I asked this question, but wanted it to have a little bit more traffic than in the install section so I posted this here, so if you could post in the linked thread to keep make it easier to track the responses, I would appreciate it :) (M...

I want to install a second battery, and an isolating circuit as well but want some feedback on this. Here's the diagram that I came up with (Questions on the last lines): https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_uOFuamLKHHk/Tb_28F8H0jI/AAAAAAAAB54/60c5cEXTlJQ/s800/Isolator%20Diagram.jpg This system works ...

So after the Japan earthquake, and because of the nature of what I do, and who I work around (The state emergency management agency), I decided to get my Amature Radio License, or Ham radio license for emergency purposes, and for fun, since I am a total nerd when it comes to this type of stuff, and ...

Howdy all! It's been a LOOOONG time since I have updated this thread, so I figured it was about time. I have been really busy lately, not only with stereo stuff, but with ham radio stuff as well, but I will get to the ham radio stuff in a min... So I did finally get around to installing my stereo, t...
