I should have mentioned... Using iOS for this also means you can start the car with your fingerprint.

Actually, the video is set to Unlisted, and I verified it twice after YouTube told me it was set to Private. YT seems to be having some technical issues at the moment. I'll set it to public temporarily until they fix this.
EDIT: It looks like Unlisted videos are working again, so the video should now be working. Not a super exciting video anyway, though. lol

I knew there had to be a good reason to keep my old itouch! I'm not an apple guy, so dedicating it to such a project would be simple. Aren't those relays expensive little suckers though? When I was looking at the options out there I recall they were steep and that's why I quit......
**** edit.... I just saw your link and followed it. WOW, they've dropped A LOT!!!!!!!!!

Pretty awesome little demo so far - this would be a great idea for us R2 Builders as well.

Are you going into production on this? If so I might be in for one depending on the cost.Originally Posted by klaatu42
I checked out the website for the relay and it's not too expensive but I don't have the technical skills to program it myself.

If you do decide to offer this, I'd love to help out with the UI and visual design.

I think what I would like to do is provide free plans on how to do it yourself, but also offer for sale pre-made kits for those who don't want to do the work.
What I'm currently trying to source is some kind of relay extension cord, or failing that, male relay plugs (empty relay cases?) so I can create my own. The whole idea will be that the install is done by removing existing relays, plugging in this harness, and attaching the relays back onto this harness. This means no cut wires or crimps required.

Adding in one of these guys (when it arrives), to ensure that the system powers off if the car sits for too long and the battery's voltage drops too much.

So then let everyone design their own UI and program it, or find an iOS programmer?
