Default RE: Electric retracts?

Hey Hal, I understand your reluctance to revisit a system that proved to be less than optimal, but we've come a long way in electronics since the days of Kraft radios!

Thanks Todd! I look forward to checking out that system. It's pretty cool that they can retrofit existing retract units!

It sounds like you're saying they have a low voltage failsafe...if the ecu detects the retract battery voltage dropping below a certain voltage it will drop the gear. That's smart, kinda like the unit Tam has for the pneumatics (that I didn't know about until yesterday.).
