Default Not NCRS - but really cool

Haven't seen anything like this posted here before. Obviously, it is not for the NCRS crowd but for updating/improving functionality and systems and for custom applications it is cool.

Cliffnotes: A solid state electrical control and wiring replacement system that also includes an RF remote control. The possibilities of how it could bring a C3 (or any type of vehicle) electrical system into the modern age at a reasonable price.

Watch the video that is on the home page.

Program logic control has been around for a long time. Looking at his control boxes it seems that all outputs are fused as they should be. Unless the output is energizing a mechanical or electronic relay the internal outputs will only handle about 1.0amp. You fry an internal output you replace the control unit.

The outputs are said to be rated at 25 amp with a maximum of 100-125 continuous out of each slave/power unit. Obviously, as mentioned in the video, you can use this to trigger a relay for higher power draws items.

nope-- multiplexing has its spaces in certain areas but cant see it in the vettes. the buses i work on are all using multiplexing circuits now. if one thing breaks it all gets replaced and the boxes cost upwards of 1500 a piece. why on earth would they run turn signals through a circuit board is beyond me. what ever happened to the old relay switch and fuse setups?
