Tip: Before you strip the wire there is a strip marker on the side of the wago connector. Line the wire up with that and stip to that length. Just so you don't have bare wire sticking out the end.

@AndyManCam 3 жыл бұрын

You could connect the ignition wire (white one) and have a switch on that circuit. But that would then switch off everything connected to the TB. Otherwise a switch between the Spotlights and the connection to the TB would do the trick. Of course depending on the draw of your spotlights, you might want to think about putting a relay in there.

@AndyManCam Жыл бұрын

You mean the black wire? The ground? It’s possible i might have connected them to a point on the frame. One way or another, you need the ground to make the accessory work. But often you can ground on to the frame and that itself is connected to the negative terminal of the battery.

@@AndyManCam My laziness is why the loom is installed (direct to the battery) but the grips are not (will do that VERY soon). I've got the "official" Yamaha grips which auto-detect the bike switching off and turn themselves off, but I like this better, "enforced shutdown"! ;) :) I don't think it's advisable to splice a heating element into an ignition circuit, which wasn't designed to take that kind of current...(which is why they are designed to connect direct to the battery) :)

Hey! Glad to help! I do get a hot seat, but it's because of my engine, not the Thunderbox! You could try some heat shielding. My bike has it all over the underside of the fuel tank and over the battery.

Interesting, I have a Innov powerhub (V1) on my FZ1 it needs a switched live which I connected to the number plate light using a posi-lock. It has a 5-10 second delay so even if the ignition's on you can use full battery power to crank the bike. I'm surprised it took this long for a company to bring out one of these without the need of a switched live considering heated grips and other accessories which can detect a bike not running existing for a while now. BTW if you use an SAE tender cable you can use Optimate's USB adapter which auto shuts off if the battery hits 12.5V without any ignition being on (SAE cable is connected direct to the battery)

I agree. The need for this and the capability has been staring is in the face for years! At least it’s here finally!

Another great video. How weather proof do you think the connector hubs are?? Brilliant product tho!!!!

@AndyManCam 11 ай бұрын

Thanks Fred! TBH, not very weather proof at all. They really have to be installed in a dry area of the bike. You could easily replace them with more weatherproof alternatives though. Or solder the connections permanently.

Hi Andy the Electricians at work use these Waco fittings instead of the old block connectors , however these can be very weak. Keep your eye on the connections mate .

Yeah I’ve used them a lot too (lighting techie). But i think in this case, the wires are under no tension so should be ok. At least if something should stop working, problem solving is easy and accessible!

I was just searching for something like this and I'm going to buy one because of this video and because there actually is a distributor in my country. Unbelievable! :) And I see they have a lot of other goodies compatible with my bike...hmm...this is going to be expensive! Darn it, I just couldn't have ping-pong as a hobby, couldn't I?

Ha! Sorry! It’s addictive to pull on the Healtech thread! In the olden days, it used to be just the Speedohealer. But now they’ve got lots of lovely toys!

I need a Thunder Box! Although the wife says I already have a thunder box.... it’s just not on the bike and it’s powered by onions along with other foodie things 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thanks for the video. I wasn't aware of this gadget til someone on the Vstrom board, StromTroopers, posted a link to your vid. Question; do you think that it could run a small compressor? I have one made by a company called "Motopressor" but I don't know its current draw. I currently (pun intended) have it wired directly to the battery via a fuse.

@AndyManCam 2 жыл бұрын

My pleasure Mart! It’s a great little accessory. I’m afraid without knowing the power needs of the compressor, i couldn’t possibly say for sure. Though considering i run my heated gloves and vest through it, there can’t be that much that it can’t handle!

Hi Andy from northern Ontario Canada, this is just what I have been looking for on my 2019 Suzuki v-strom 650. I need to and some extra lights for night rides into work. Now just need to find where to get it and how much in Canada. Great install video. Cheers

Hi Andy, love your channel. As a new rider I just got myself a Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro. Been thinking about how I could hook up my gps and the Scottoiler to the battery without interfering with any original cables. When I stumbled over this video I knew I had to get the Thunderbox. Waiting on my TB-U02, which is a nightmare to get. Hope it arrives in the following week. Now to my question. Do you know if the Thunderbox still works when using a Connector, like a Ctek Comfort connector as a possibility to switch between using the thunderbox an hooking the battery up to a charger… Thanks.

@AndyManCam 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks very much! Happy to help! I do remember something about being able to use it with a charger. You just have to do something with the white cable to make it work properly. I’m pretty sure you can download the manual from the website and take a peek at what the score is. But ultimately, yes.
