350mA @ 18V for the device itself is not much so no problem there. The DC-DC conversion is going to add some losses but total current will likely be under 1A on the 12V side. Should work just fine.  (View Post)

Just to be clear, you are talking about antifreeze for winterizing ? The Alde system also contains what is essentially antifreeze which has more specific requirements. For winterizing there is RV spe… (View Post)

AFAIK the Q5 has LED tail lights and I suspect the ZCI does not get triggered reliably because of the comparably low current draw of LED lights. I assume the resistors they are talking about go in th… (View Post)

The connector with the additional spade goes on the 12V +, and the thin red wire connects there. The thin red and black wires are for the fan.  (View Post)

The winch will certainly do the job but it's absolute overkill. The typical offroad vehicle winches are rated based on pulling a dead weight on a level surface. For dead weight the table is correct b… (View Post)
