What have you done to your ride lately?

[balakay]

Wait. Don't I see the words "Faulty OBD Adapter?"

Not sure what that's about. It was working fine for an hour or two. That popped up about a minute before I took the picture. I had homework to do but I'm going to do some more investigating later.

The one I use is that cheap ass blue one.

You do!! .

Hmm. Like the tablet mount idea with Torque. Then I can fuck with it and not get a cellphone fine . Bigger screen would be nice too.

I'm really liking it so far. Tablets are pretty cheap nowadays too. This is a Samsung Tab 4 7.0" and I think it was $110 at Best Buy.

I have a Assus T101 already. 10inches bitch

That makes the decision easier then. I don't know that I'd want a 10" screen though. But I guess it depends where you plan to mount it.

Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. Love the thing. It's my latest tab. I have a fire hdx 6.0 (won it), a galaxy tab 2.0 7.0, a toshiba 7.7 (awesome tablet but the connector is HUGE), and an Acer 10" I've had for years. Wife and daughter have iPads and iPad minis. They love them but I prefer the android tablets. Actually the 7" Samsung tab is the kids and she loves it because I loaded it up with movies she can watch without wifi.

I like the idea of these things - Someday I may put something like that in but it would only have resident things like user manuals and downloaded maps for the places I like typically have no cell service.

 

[tx_shooter]

That is kind of where inam going with this idea. I will save manuals to the tablet, map software, and Torque so as it will be my connection to the vehicle.

 

[tx_shooter]

I connected my old phone to my ODB reader and it also shows Faulty OBD Adapter but my current phone never showed that.

 

[balakay]

Mine no longer shows it after adjusting a few settings. Working great so far.

 

[thekidcatcher]

What all are you ladies using as tablet mounts?

 

[tx_shooter]

RAM mount ball and cradles. I have an install thread in the Electrical sub-forum I can link when I get to a PC.

 

[balakay]

Got the fridge wired up to the battery finally. Just need to work on getting the slide mounted so I can ditch the ratchet strap holding it in right now.

 

[Silverback]

Did you use 4 ga wire?

Did you use 4 ga wire?

He used 10. I was the one that has a pretty long length of 4 that I may or may not use for running a constant power to the back.

 

[Silverback]

He also mentioned using 4 iirc. But 10 is plenty. Overkill. Good thing.

 

[thekidcatcher]

So I know I can find it my searching google BUT you guys are bored. Will those fridges essentially run 24/7 for a few days without killing a battery?

 

[balakay]

I was originally going to use 8ga but got 10ga easier so went with it. It's still plenty big enough to run with no voltage drop.
