I've been waiting for more detail on this! Fantastic job, Joey!

Just a thought. With the ibs battery system the batteries are linked via a solenoid with pos to pos. Also has neg to neg as well. Will this cause any forsee able issues with the wiring. Also, I am assuming if a thief knew to link the battereies on the monitor they could jump the car, however this is unlikely.

Now, the connections to the pos of either or both batteries is purely for batt/alt voltage. Zero other purpose. The switch to see the voltage is momentary on so there is no chance of battery drain. The ground cables merely replaces the existing ground and adds a disconnect. Anything the IBS system does would work exactly as it always has.

As for your other question, I dunno. Not familiar with the IBS setup at all.
 
By now everyone here know I don't sugar coat anything. You product looks wonderful, but you lost me at the price part.
I don't need a temp gauge, don't need the aux power or the extra stuff that come with it. I just need a quick battery disconnect switch, under $10.
To me, your work and design is top notch, but overkill for my needs.

No choice. The cut-off alone is nearly a 1/3 of it.

Thanks, thanks and I know :p
 
gorgeous! well done Sir!
 
FNA. NLXTACY- I want one of these but dude, it needs to be free. In fact, you need to pay me to use it. I mean the time you spent to get the size and the bends just right is your problem. The powder coat-that's on you. The fact that you included a quality disconnect is irrelevant. And all those nice accessories you included, is just for you and your LA groupie friends. What are you thinking? I mean seriously, in LA there are important things going on like Bruce Jenner (call me Caitlin) as a woman posing for Vanity Fair. I am thinking of doing the same thing. Dragos80 is right, it doesn't meet his needs and therefore no one else will be interested either. Unless, that is, it's under $10. But good luck anyway.
 
Zactly. I stand firmly against corporate greed.


Dude, I explained my position clearly. Did you place an order by the way?

If I come out praising him and making a big deal of how much I would love to have it and hopefully I can get it before July 4 so I can show it off at the backyard BBQ, what would Joey think at that point? Seriously.

He is already sitting on a few items already. Again, I don't want to give him false hopes. He's not my mortal enemy and I have no intention in bankrupting his business. Just one honest opinion.

I have some cardboard that I'll drill a hole in. I also have a 200A Made in China disconnect I'll send to you. $10 and free shipping. PM me :flipoff2:

I gotta back up dragos here, I agree with him. It is a beautiful product but total overkill. For me I just don't need all of this. Again, you are a hell of alot smarter and creative than me, so I bow to you for that but I am not sure if there will be many customers on this one, but I could be totally wrong. However, on a positive note, your other products are top notch and very usable. I really am upset I changed my center console since you came out with the lock box and inner accessory pouch! I almost want to go back to a stock center console. Keep it up Joey, nice work bud! :)
 
I would love to have that plate but reversed to go where my secondary battery is [passenger side] and I would mount my two battery switches on it[blue sea mini switch for winch power on/off and blue sea mini e-series 1/2/both battery control]. the rest is just that, nice xtras for eventualities.....

fantastic execution of the fab work as always.......
 
I realize it's early-ish and I'm still working on coffee, but I don't see a price to bitch about....much less decide if I want one :flipoff2:.

Only non-required item for me would be the fuse block, no intention of doing water temps but maybe an on board air location or something one day.


Edit--nevermind, I need glasses or something. The initial price is a bit high, maybe it will be refined down some.
 
I like it@! Count me in when you start selling..
