Post projects and modifications here.
Always on RSNAV
- Goal of this project is to have the device stay powered on after car is turned off.
- We need to know what wire to tap into on the RSNAV, and what voltage and amperage battery would be required.
RSNAV Coin battery
- Project: Add coin battery to keep time.
WARNING: PROCEED AT YOUR RISK. YOUR FAILURE HERE IS NOT COVERED BY THE PRODUCT WARRANTY.
Required: CR2032 Battery, CR2032 Battery holder, Soldering iron, Solder, Thin electric wires, and basic soldering and assembly skill.
