iLive update,

Turns out the battery in the iLive doesn't last very long so I had to resort
to using the flashlight charger plugin in the glove box to keep it going. I had
an adaptor for the flashlight plug but I had to get one of these to power
and charge the iLive. USB Car Charger | reVOLT c2 Dual USB Charger | reVOLT c2 | by Scosche

Now, with the aux plugged in, and the power being fed from the flashlight
adaptor to the scoshe usb car charger, and the scoche car charger
charging the iLive when the key is on we're good to go.
I also turn the iLive off when I'm not using it but that doesn't mean
it will keep a charge. It's just my preference to turn it off.

One other quirk. Seems like The X gets confused when it's trying to find
the iLife bluetooth and so it won't connect with the iPhone bluetooth. So
what I found is that turning off the iPhone bluetooth and then turning it
back on connects everything. Now everything is in the glovebox neatly
wrapped up and hidden from site and all I have to do play whatever.

Soon I'll take the iPad out to the X and get it connected.


Edit: Well after about a month I returned the iLive. It worked but when it was on
There was a whine I could hear that occurred when driving. When it was off it made
other strange sounds. It had to go. So no Bluetooth for now.
