[Ovmsdev] OVMS - HW

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

Take care.

There is a 0.5A fuse in front of that regulator, and that limits the total we can draw from the car.

Håkon did some work on this last year, and we introduced some generic GPIO control in v2.5.4.

Regards, Mark.

These relays draw about 80mA each (just tested them, I have the same product at home), so if you turn them on one at a time and for short periods of time it should be ok (I don't know a lot about the termal design of the OVMS).
