Mind running another wire in your car?

Well, I made this really nice dock that works well and all, but the ONE THING I left out was an ethernet cable. I mean, with wireless and all, I figured why bother? Possibly an oversight I regret now.

I've moved on and ordered a USB KVM switch so I can get these things working together.

I've left it over 3 days with no problems. The P1900 has a low voltage cutoff at around 11.5 volts so it won't run the battery dead. You can reprogram it to cutoff at a higher voltage.

If I'm going to be out of it for more than a weekend, I shut it down or remove it from the car.
