    Lucky! I only have a nokia 1110. Couldn't connect to the switchpro, but dropped it while driving the other day and totaled my truck.

    Shit bolted onto other shit, and junk.
    Pull the trigger, yes, aim, no. At least not yet for the Army version those cards were removed and only remain in the Navy setups.

    :rofl: More power to whoever funded those.

    Maybe its my odd style of camping, but sometimes I just want a town day. Whatever little burg I'm rolling through, sometimes its fun to parallel park on the street, grab a bite and a beer and walk around the square before rolling on to the next campsite. And thats all I think about when I see these monsters. How the hell are these people doing their town day? Uber?

    I'm with you. Love strolling through little towns like Silverton, Ouray, etc. You see a lot of these monsters with a dirtbike, mtn bike, etc strapped on the back. It'd take half a walmart lot to park one of those beasts. ~4mpg as I recall.

    Not everything that I do requires and app to do it. Companies should figure this out and simple state, "it causes too many problems, and Fred, our programmer never thought it was a good idea in the first place. So we ignored him and caused you, our customer endless frustration. So we have discontinued our app and learned a valuable lesson. Sorry"

    Some old technologies, like cables, kick butt on new tech like Bluetooth. BTI = blue tooth insanity. Caused by intermittent connections, disconnections and general PITA.

    Wait...Wut? You want to control your lights using a cell phone? WTF kind of witchcraft is this? Next you will want the ability to change TV channels if the batteries in the remote die. I’m tired of using outdated switches and beg God for a solution each and every night that I cry myself to sleep.

    I already solved this problem many, many moons ago. I needed my truck lights to go on and off while I stood 25 yards away. I got a girlfriend. Try it.

    I don’t use the app to control the switches, just for the initial programming. I have an iPhone. The app sucks balls by modern app standards. The rest of the system rocks though.
