    So wait... I can plug my TRD Sport into an AC outlet and it'll become a TRD Pro? How long do I have to leave it plugged in for and are we talking 110VAC 20A or do I need a 50A circuit. What if I unplugged muh dryer and went with a 240VAC circuit? How in the hell have I not heard of this?

    X2 but hey he might be changing it up a little. You probably get tired of eating ice cream in the quality control department.

    Yes, this is completely feasible.
    You need four high current power diodes and 9 neighbors with the same problem.
    Wire the diodes into a bridge.
    Wire the 10 batteries in series.
    Attach the DC side of the bridge in parallel to the ends of the series.
    Plug it in hoping you got the polarization correct.

    If the house or anything on the line side ignites put it out.
    When one of the batteries ignites or explodes, one of the remaining batteries is likely at 12 volts.
    Clean up the mess from the house fire, the burning battery acid and the remaining properly damage. Bury the victims.
    Done.

    You did the heated ignition mod? Awesome! If I upped it to 100A would my gas & brake pedals get hot? I don’t drive with shoes on in the winter & my toes get cold real quick-like…:thumbsup:

    I could have used this mod once this past winter. we have a plug in hybrid and I was trying to keep the heat off so the motor wouldn't come on, just used heated seat and heated steering wheel. About 10 minutes into the drive, I had to crank the heat as my toes where freaking cold.

    Not to hijack this informative thread, but asking for a friend who has many shallow theories on similar topics (such as oil change intervals), but if we put 100a fuses into the ABS won’t this improve gas mileage?

    I am not sure about the gas mileage, but I think it will save brake pads.
