Just a quick update ....

from the cold wife, to the heating on chilling morns threads

the £6 remnote control arrived today
and by luck the local Aldi had heated car seat s for £10 with 3 year guarantee !!

This is just to show that it works, and that it has a range of at least 30 foot

it has 2 relays , so maxed out, It can control two 10a 12v outlets

As it arrives £6 all in , from my man in the East ;)

and as an added bonus, the remote looks like a Minion in his big underpants :)

This is how I've wired it, as my cig lighter is constant 12v
but you could just tap into a heavy duty 12v source

first steps...very low standy amps . 11milli amps, if not less

messing about, to test if it would run a 240v inverter
disco bulb , incase you were wondering :)
and yes, I did take the video with a potato :)

I am trying a spare battery..as the heated seats take 2.5-3 amps
and can charge it on the fly

Anywho, just to show that it lends itself to other applications.

I'll see how it does with turning the heated car seats on for 20 mins in the morn...

catchits
the lock and unlock , do not turn on and off
press an individual one to toggle on/off
the twoi buttons are because there are two relays, so you can controll both individually

All the Best
& Warm buns :)
