    Down riggers

    Any release (have used them all probably one time or another) that hard clips the fishing line to the down-rigger main line, doesn't typically allow, at least to some extend, the fishing line to either slide a bit up/down and/or stretch away from the main down-rigger line when a fish hits...

    how merc tachs work on 00 90hp ELPTO

    Now I am........Was reading manuals, because...yes, I'm mad (See Carpalope). Saw this, go figure? Embedded diode in a terminal block!! Hmmm, well figured for future tense, this needed to be added. Not sure it's necessary (esp nowwa days), perhaps for some older specific merc made tach or...

    My Winter Hobby

    I still need to open mine up and draw it but, found this......... doesn't look like mine but, someone might use/have this one. Found it interesting in that they shut off the heated grips when the chute is energized.....brings a whole new light to "time of use" power management eh? Also, "DC...

    Ya got me thinking....omg, another project! There's even an blue tooth app, 49 different colors by golly.....I better go measure the current. This thing from what i gathered last year, has a three phase stator, not sure what she can do but, it runs those heated grips, the lectric chute and the...

    Uniden Solara D / UM380 surface mount bezel

    Found it!.........here buy it here? But, best measure your radio and check me on it........ PN is CMB11W This might work/be an upgrade and be purdier, same PN (has the "11" in PN) but, this site is out, perhaps knowing this face however is the same PN, you'll be able to buy this style...

    1998 Mercury 125 2+2 not charging batteries

    CDI is wrong if they claim you should get a reading from either yellow wire to ground on this stator (and/or your reading some other testing procedure not for your stator and/or you're mis-interpreting what CDI says here for your stator ). The stators two yellow charge wires are 100% isolated...

    In keeping with your design of the desired full-wave rectification..... That pan head screw is connecting/grounding one side stator's charge winding to the frame/engine, ya can leave it and try that single point ground we spoke of above to achieve a full-wave rec you desire, thinking it might...

    Below are non-isolated (single point) ground simulations (Sorta kinda can give some insight, might just have to prototype as you have been to be extra sure) The Center Tapped XFMR Full-Wave config non-iso ground (ground everything to same point) appears to behave.........Might be able to get...

    Hmmmm, not sure but, If I was going to add lights and wanted/required full wave rectification AND was stuck with a frame grounded/referenced stator winding, think I'd lean one of two ways(see below)......Be easy to add a active regulator to either if ya wanted as I'm not sure how much Vout is...

    ..........OMG, Eyes Watering, Stomach Hurts!!

    This is so wrong on so many levels and apologies to anyone offended but, seems we've all been that one side (or the other) of THAT elevator ride.......At least once in our life? This just brought it soooo close to home but, in a way funny way I hope for everyone, did for me anyway. PRICELESS...

    50 HP Mercury Outboard Trim Relay

    If his motor is a two wire, it runs relays.....Recall our typical solenoids are just a SPST contactor. His setup does look a bit home brewed though, agreed. Example above of using solenoids, he's need 4 solenoids in that assembly to run his two wire motor, doesn't appear that there could be 4...

    50 HP Mercury Outboard Trim Relay

    If ya can't find it, you could always roll....errrr, wire your own...That thing is just these in what looks like a sorta sealed package so it could be sold for waaaay too much money. Just standard automotive 50 Amp relays also here as well as your local automotive parts store. The two relays are...
