Group: Well, there is plenty of interest in making a purchase of 70A auxiliary battery relays. I will take additional names until Wednesday afternoon, then I will place an order. If anyone else in interested, please let me know. Just so everyone is clear: Although this will be a good replacement of the stock 30A relay, it won't be as simple as unplugging the old one and plugging in the new. In addition to heavier gauge wire that will be needed to safely carry the extra current (see earlier posts), larger connectors may be required as well. The stats for the relay can be seen at: http://www.newark.com/C115_modules/3273.html. I looked into shipping costs/taxes and found that it will probably cost me in all about $8 to get one to anyone in the US, our foreign friends might need to add a buck or two, depending on where they are.
