I don’t mind learning hard lessons from someone else. I was devastated your “memory maker” burnt up and the damage and hardship it caused to your home and family. I’m glad you bounce back better than ever and can’t wait to see it hit the trails 🙌 Best of Luck ~ Josh
Great video. I am glad you are getting things back together. For your trickle charger, I would like to suggest installing a Tecmate OptiMATE Cable O-40, Weatherproof SAE socket, panel mount instead of just having the pig tail sticking out and possible rubbing around. They are like $15 on Amazon. Polaris makes a Pulse Battery Tender Adapter that is fused and plugs into the bus bar that is very handy, but would not work if you have the cut off engaged. I have my Optimate on the hood of my Ranger going into the bus bar. On my Sportsman I used the Optimate in put it in the headlight pod to plug my tender into.
I was always taught that the way electronics are designed, if they lose ground, there is the potential for them to become damaged, right at the moment of connect/disconnect. Losing 12v positive doesn't have that risk.
