So over the weekend, I picked up a Centech AP1 at the NY Motorcycle show so I can drive my electrical accessories such as the Starcom1 and the Zumo etc.., and since I'm lazy I picked up their 70 amp relay kit so I could run it with switched power (I know how to wire a relay, I was just being lazy
)
Anyway I get home and take a look at my new stuff, only to realize that the Relay they sold me does not have Diode isolation across the trigger terminals,
It's not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things, since it will only take me a few minutes to solder in a Diode, but considering what that thing retails for (I paid WAY less then retail) and the fact that a diode is only a few cents when bought in bulk, it should have it included....
