Ignore the barking dogs.

Dunno but now it really IS about nothing.

Brings back the story of someone who runs around in a library shouting...

"Who'd read THAT?"

"What a stupid subject!"

If it were me, there would be only GOOD books on the shelves, like Hustler and Guns n Ammo!"

Do I read cookbooks like "Cooking With Curry? Do I comment on them? When something does not interest me I do not waste one millisecond wasting my time commenting about my disinterest (DUMB) I move on. Comments can be MOST revealing about a persons character.......ahem.....

So this is going to be another 15-pages topic about nothing?
I can only add to animal collision. I did hit a deer doing 60 mph with my F450.
Saturday night, 1500 miles from home did not make good feeling, but after inspection , turn out that steel bumper took all the hit and all oil cooler, condenser and radiator were still holding, so did not worry about bumper replacement till I got home.
The deer was kicked out of the road so I could not locate it. Not that I tried hard.

I admire a man who apologises readily when he decides he is in the wrong. As Mex says, too many boneheads don't.

It's not only the speed, but the velocity vector and angle... and I never took physics, or stayed in the TT or stayed at a Holiday Inn last night. But I could be wrong, too.

OK dear, if you REALLY want that black thing, you can buy it. What's it for again?........

LOL... always mention how that black thing will make her stay in the RV more comfortable.

MexicoWanderer, I indulged in a bit of unwarranted sniping early on in this thread for which I wish to apologize. It was unnecessary and totally without worth. I guess I just was being an old curmudgeon. I also apologized on the other thread. Sorry.

Add me to the list. Thought it was being sarcastic when in fact was being serious (sigh).

Aren't the 1/4" connectors on top of marine batteries good for 800 amp?

Color me skeptical, but I think that thing would melt into a puddle after not too much time handling 200 amps. The connections look like 1/4-20 (judging by the .250 quick connect terminals).
Maybe Chinese amps are smaller than American amps.

No need for growling... I just ordered 2 of them and will put 'em to the test to see how they perform.
I have plenty of good uses for high current relays 🙂

You are absolutely entitled to growl and snap. None of us I think can avoid getting grouchy. Too much physical pain and jabs to the frustration bin dealing with other more important issues that leave us ummmsome-thing-or-other "offed" and at my age chips are easily carried on the shoulder for too long afterwards. I took no offense but I will truly accept an apology because you felt one was warranted. There are some knotheads on the face of the earth who would not surrender an apology even if they later realized they were wrong and lay on their deathbed. Woe to them via my sarcasm. They made the top floorof the retinue for my speed-bag grade sarcasm. You of course are just the opposite - a gentleman.

Some of us do our own work and a heavy duty relay for that price I felt should be shared with everyone.
