    From: Richard Girard <aslsa.rng@gmail.com>
    I haven't done a survey of the entire automotive world, but it seems as if every car today has convenience lighting that turns on the interior lights when the doors are unlocked and again when the car is turned off. On my 2006 Toyota truck, they turn off when the doors are locked, either with the switch on the door or with the remote. Perhaps a You Pick car wrecker would be a good place to grab a circuit whole for a relative cheap price.

I believe that you will find that most of the delays etc are controlled through the car's computer and not with individual delay circuits. I could be wrong, have been on occasion. Roger

    Subject: spliting 2 wires at a dsub connector
    In the sprit of the comic books that Bob has put together which have proven so valuable I need to split a shielded wire into 2 pins on on a DSUB. I am sure that what I did would be an acceptable approach but is there a better way? this is a 2 conductor shielded wire. I have already added a pigtail using a solder sleeve thanks for the help I striped off a 1/4 inch strip of insulation about 1 1/2 inches back from the pin I following Bob=92s comic book on splicing wires i teased out a couple of strands of the wire to be joined Wrapped and soldered added shrink wrap and crimped on the pin

    I'm thinking more like the circuit that lets the head lights remain on till you get the groceries in. And did I tell you this has to be small and weigh next to nothing !!!

    Subject: Re: Timer circuit for led array
    Which is exactly the function of the automotive relay cited. It weighs pretty close to nothing, (as close as you're likely to get anyway) is small, about a 1" cube, is adjustable for delay time, is relatively inexpensive (only $13.00 direct from the manufacturer in single quantities) and it will switch up to 30 amps. Pretty good off the shelf solution to the problem I'd say.
