Maybe not a concern, but it was the question.

Not really. He is concerned about it, but there obviously is no need to be concerned.

Thank you everyone. I've been working down country, hence the delay in reply.

Great feedback as always.

I have already given out lots of my folding beer tokens, so the option to buy new is great, but sadly not viable. I should obviously have checked the memory option before buying. (Old duffer here)

The fused feed idea, from the battery side of the isolator is also good, but I have already flattened my battery with too big a draw, and it's firstly dissapointigng not to be able to take the Min out, and secondly, a nightmare process to recharge a battery, when you live in apartments and have nowhere outside to charge the battery. Charging it in the house is a real no no with Mrs Minitman and kinderlings.

Baron Vonchesto, that is the answer I was looking for. I can easily parallel the battery from the alternator (charging) connections at the fuse box, for Headlights etc. the battery will fit behind the dash next to the head unit. Did you get any problems ever?

 

Thank you one and all, i will try to post my findings and eventual set up.

Just go for Bluetooth minitman, I have a high quality Bose speaker and Spotify on my iPhone and sounds better than anything you would need to cut up the car for. Maybe not old skool but far more efficient and saves the car interior.
