AL Priority Wireless Install?

OK, So Bluetooth modules for iPhone users should be in stock hopefully at the end of next week. For customers doing new installations using the Bluetooth module (Front Install Only) you can install your heads and mount the CPU in the engine compartment and there is no reason to run wires under the dash. This will be a huge time savings with the installation and you will be able to activate the AL Priority using the ALP Connect app on your apple device. The smartphone app with give you all the functions of the control module and will add a visual display and voice alerts.

Is there a rough price range yet?

Around or under $99.95 - I have costs in international funds but I then have to calculate currently exchanges, transportation costs, customs fee's, import taxes etc to get to our landed costs. I will have fixed pricing next week.

That is a no brainer for me. Please put one aside for me. =)

But say you wanted to run rear heads too, then you have to bring the CPU inside under the dash area--Correct.

Correct. It would make no sense to mount the CPU under the hood if you wanted to run wires to the rear of your car. If you are running rear heads you would want to mount the CPU under the dash so that cables would be long enough to reach both the front and the rear. I mean you could get extensions and leave it under the hood but I dont really see any benefit to the extra costs of the cables.

wil there be the facillty to connect front and rears bt wireless, at a later date

Are you trying to run 2 CPU's? (ie one for the front and one for the rear?) If so I suspect the app is only going to connect to one CPU at a time. A single CPU supports 5 heads (3 front and 2 rear).


On another note:

Tom I hope you purchased enough of these as they are going to sell like hot cakes!

Not using the Bluetooth module but there might be a Cheetah kit available if its a big issue for you but I would personally prefer to have a wired system.

Oh Dinkydi your just trying to hook up the sensors via Bluetooth. This is a bad idea in general. You want to make sure it's wired so there is NO delay when you get targeted. Remember it takes less than a second to get a speed reading and if the Bluetooth has a hiccup you're toast!

yep ur right , bak to wires :D

Doesn't the manual stats the control unit must be inside the car or if under hood must be in waterproof protector?
Any idea on how to waterproof it?

In a wireless install you would not be using the Control Module you would be using the Bluetooth Module to wirelessly connect to the system. The CPU and Bluetooth module would have to be in a waterproof enclosure to prevent moisture from entering the components in the engine compartment.

To waterproof the CPU + BlueTooth Module + RG Module is also using radar you can get a simple case such as this one:

Drill a hole for the wiring and then silicone the opening around the wires to seal it.

I am going to run in a IP66 rated enclosure on my car, but I'll be sending my cpu & Bluetooth off too http://www.liquipel.com/ to be coated, just in case water passes the compression glands on the enclosure.

That also could be a good trick on hiding a RD in plain sight...
