ya. it's good for my qi samsung buds. if you're not streaming music or talking on the phone much the QI should suffice but I'm more of a power user (not while driving) so I like my battery charged faster. thanks for watching.

YOU MISSED SOMETHING ROB, on the 2020 tacomas Toyota also removed the Aux port, if you see between your rear window button and your wireless charging bottom , there is only a USB port, in my 2019 for example I have a USB port AND an aux pot in the same slot.

Get a add a fuse like this (verify fuse type) amzn.to/2UCfH4p Then look for a switched circuit in your fuse box like ignition, radio or accessory. You can also tap your cigarette lighter plug which is what I did.

I just bought one for my 2015 Tacoma. It arrives tomorrow so I have not installed it yet. I was wondering if the LEDs are annoyingly bright at night. I have some black plastic port protectors I can plug in when I am not using the USB ports to block the light, but was hoping it would not be too bright at night. Thanks.

@RobDaman 4 жыл бұрын

Hi, I didn't think they were too bright but they are bright. I have the usb plugged in most of the time so it's no bother to me. let me know how it works for you.

@dojmike 4 жыл бұрын

@@RobDaman I just received it and hooked it up to a 12v supply and turned out the lights. It is brighter than I would like, but not obnoxious. I have some black plastic USB port protectors and I will drill a 1/32 hole in the center of the protectors so it will let little light through so I can see them. These ports charge very nicely and I am happy with the performance. Thanks again for the video.

Hey Rob , thanks for the vids! I'm hoping you can answer a question. I have added a USB port to the center console of my 07 FJ. I used a add-a-fuse to one of the "continuous power" extra fuse slots and ran the ground to the same spot the battery is grounded to. Everything seemed to work without any issues. However my key fob now will only unlock and lock the FJ if I am10 feet or closer to the FJ. I tried moving the add-a-fuse to the other "continuous power" slots and have the same results. When I disconnect the add-a-fuse the fob works across a parking lot. Any idea why this is happening? Thanks for taking the time!

@RobDaman Жыл бұрын

Use switched power like a windshield wiper fuse location. Continuous power shouldn't be tapped due potential battery drain.

Hey rob. I noticed you’ve put so much different electrical stuff on your truck. Light bars, ditch pods. Are they all connected to your main battery? Do you have one one battery or have you doubled up on it? Do you have a second battery you hook up only your electronics to? If yes do you have a video on it

@RobDaman 4 жыл бұрын

I have a single Odyssey battery. LEDs are very efficient so electrical load isn't too bad. I didn't do a video about it but it could be a topic I may touch about. dual battery systems get pricey but do have benefits.

@samdequina3386 4 жыл бұрын

I think with trucks now and day and having so many options and customizations it be a good topic to talk about. I was thinking of running a second battery in the future so I wouldn’t burn out my main one
