e-crofting suspension box

Unread post by white exec »

Has anyone opened up an e-crofting box to find out what's inside?
My guess is just two diodes, but is there anything else?

Lots of potting compound Chris ;)

I did open one once... My tests suggest that indeed it is just diodes in there...

It is indeed just diodes, albeit in a nice little box and very neatly done. They're clearly aimed at the cack-handed types like myself who can't solder well (and in my case, also colour blind)

Thanks, both. What I thought. A good little earner - but it does make fitting easy.

I think it is neat, a good method that tucks neatly into the ECU box (or neatly attaches to the outside) and good for those who do not like the thought of opening the ECU, earner maybe but I do not think he will be earning like Bill Gates :)

Happy to pay for such a "service"

It's a bit of a niche market these days... For the amount of time it takes to make one to order and the ease, neatness and convenience of fitting, it's good value...

Agreed
Assembly is 10-15 job for a great outcome. The splicig pins are excellent and make for an easy fit. Happy to pay for the service. Its a few beers!
