Easily Find Car Accessory Power with SourcePWR® from Rostra

Very cool device. I'm not sure how much it costs but most of what it does can be replicated with the relay installation. Unless you wanted your halos to stay on after locking the truck for an extended period of time. That looks to be the only difference between the two installations that I can think of. I guess you can use any 12v constant to power it and it senses system voltage change when the vehicle is started to create an ACC power source?

At any rate, will have to keep that in mind for later projects.
