[QUOTE="Carey Frennier, post: 837018, member: 66764"] Alright, So I'm going to play around with one of these Electric exhaust cutouts. We will probably put one on both of our vehicles. One of the things I've read about is that people constantly over torque the motor by holding/leaving the toggle switch on the open setting. This extra stress significantly damages the motor assembly on the electronic cutout. Its the number one cause of failure among all electronic cutouts. Second would be the exposure to the elements. There is a $100+ switch/controller out there that's made to open the valve and stop at the precisely 100% open without over torque on the unit. Thus, prolonging its life. http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/Controller/index.php I've got to believe that there is a better way to do this without spending $100 or even $50. I just want something that I can set to open for X amount of seconds and then it will automatically cut power for both opening and closing. Anyone have any ideas? [/QUOTE]
