    Yabba Dabba Doo! Can't wait.

    Quick question. If I have the coil real mod, would I remove it and go back to stock setup when installing this or is the relay mod still applicable?

    Thanks again for all the work on this. This is gonna be great.

    Quick Update on the SSPB.

    Things are going well and I'm looking to do most of the finally assembly for the first batch by the end of the Thanksgiving weekend. In the next couple of days I will be sending out emails and PM's to those people that I have on the list to confirm orders. I prefer emails because with the 147 pm limit I am already nearly filled just with the back and forth correspondence.

    I have setup a new gmail account at:

    SolidStatePowerBox@gmail.com

    so I would prefer all inquiries to transition over there so I can keep track of orders and interest better.


    Here is a picture of the three base options. Based on the interest so far I made up a mix of the three styles of heat sinks. I have made more of the tabless so if you think that is what you want please make sure you order that.




    Here is a picture of 12 partially assembled PCB's. There are still a couple of open items that I can go either way. My plan is to fully populate the 10 pin Molex so that nobody has to worry about crimping the pins to insert into the connector. You just have to solder the pig tails into your harness.

    I will not use pigtails on my bike , I will just crimp onto the harness wires. If you would prefer this and think you can do it because you have a descent crimper then I can just send a bare connector with the required pins. Unless you specify I will send the populated connector.

    I have a Compufire on my bike, so I will be taking pictures of that. If somebody wants anything changed for your own install let me know it should not be too big of a problem but again this will be on an exception basis only. If you don't say anything you get the standard. At this point I'm not sure what peoples capabilities are with respect to crimping so I looking to do most of it.





    Here is an introductory video showing a prototype SSBP working with the tests station. This should give you an idea of how it will work.

    Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude/impatient.

    Bike's an 83 750ED, I don't care what mount: I'll be making a custom box to go where the airbox was along with a smaller battery. Can you suggest a battery replacement that will take up less space, I don't understand electricity. Also, I'm basing my rebuild around your product so I hope you don't get too caught up with other things.

I started on the housing and got a lot of the enclosure jigs made and nd have holes cut yesterday and started making heat sink base plates today. If I am able to stay on this and nothing comes up it looks like I can take some orders before the end of the month. Figure a couple more weeks after that for delivery depending upon the number of orders.
    Good news indeed. Here's hoping nothing gets in your way this time!

    No problem for me. Do it at your own pace.

    Sorry, but the remodeling has gotten more involved that I thought it would. I am not really settled but rather in the middle of a bunch of work. I will look at the SSPB this weekend and get an estimate of where I'm at with it.

    Thanks for the words of support. I am going to have a series of projects to get settled in but most of them will have to take a back seat to getting these done.

    AH- missed that- when I did a search the post came up brand new.
    Searched fuse box.
