Yes thats the newer version of mine same spec, I have 2 remotes, one in the car and one hangs up in the kitchen for remote switch on, I programmed one channel for 15 mins timed on and second channel for 30 mins which I used this afternoon to give the FBH a good run (had the battery charger pluged in). The second battery is connected to rear fuse board direct (have put a battery cut off switch in line just in case need to isolate it ) purists will say wrong way to do it but its been like that 3 years no problem quite a few have done it this way over on fullfat, not rewired any thing major job to rewire just for audio.@kds That vellman looks interesting, don't know if you have the later model?
Are both of your batteries connected all the time? I assume you didn't rewire all the audio to the second battery.

So how did it go ? Engine warm up any quicker ?Yes I pinched the feed from the telestart also, Wiring for the cheapo remote was not how i'd expected, will post it here when I get a chance. Going into the office in the morning so I'll see how it goes.
We all know how this goes, first its a spare FBH then its an engine, then gearbox, axle, steering rack, couple of doors just in case ( see the pattern can you).Emailed the ebay seller about a refund on the faulty FBH and he'd already sent out a replacement. Just bench tested it and apart from a slightly noisy water pump it's testing ok so I now have a spare.

Sounds a bit like my garage, I have to take couple of grand kids bikes out just so can stand in garage get out the wind.It did seem to yes, obviously it's gonna need a few more runs out to fully test
That's why I have a garage like an obsticle course and a shed that I can't physically get in
Doesn't help having 2 cars and 3 motorbikes, and enough tools to rebuild a house or car.
Oh mate,you need to get out more,this lockdown has a lot to answer for.No snow here yet but I'm ready for it. Got a 60w solar panel coming tomorrow so we'll see if that puts out enough to offset the FBH a bit. Gonna monitor the voltage on the Bluetooth battery monitor with the solar panel on and the FBH running. Should be interesting.
Oh mate,you need to get out more,this lockdown has a lot to answer for.I'm waiting for the postie to deliver my repaired fuse box so I can see both sides of the screen clear.
