Undervolt protection?
Posted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 1:32 am
I saw a few posts in the fit-pc2 secton regarding dead units after using them to drain a battery. I assume this means fit-pc2 doesn't handle undervolt conditions?
Does fit-pc3 have undervolt protection, or do I need to add a little custom circuitry in order to install it in a car?
In general, do you expect that fit-pc3 has enough power conditioning to handle the irregular voltages of car electronics?
Additionally, how much amperage can the fit-pc3 supply to the USB ports? The standard is 500ma per port, but can fit-pc3 supply this for all 8 USB ports simultaneously? Any ideas whether it would work to use the USB ports for things like an in-car phone charger at higher-than-standard current draw?
Thanks!
