Hi Matt, I still have not had time to post them up on my web site and because of other commitments, I’m just making small runs at a time, which I am in the process of doing this weekend, so there will be some available early next week.
Just a note, when these new isolators go into regular production, I will also be offering a Cut-N-Crimp service where if you know the exact lengths of cable you need, I’ll cut and crimp the terminals on the cable, and fit heat shrink, before shipping and it will only work out a few dollars more than buying the unassembled cable and separate terminals.
I will be making the cables up in either 6B&S ( 13.5mm2 ) and in 35mm2.
Again while none of this is up on my web site yet, the service is available to AULRO members.

Cheers for the reply, let me know when the units are produced and I will get one off you. The cable idea is great but since I have access to all this stuff I won't require this service, but would make it so much easier for other customers. Keep up the good work.
Cheers Matt

Hi Matt, I am just finishing another small batch of the USI-160 Isolators and they will be ready some time tomorrow.
If any body else is interested, get in early as I will be moving them quickly, going on the enquires.
Note, They will not be displayed on my web site.
Cheers, Tim.

Hi Tim,
Let me know how you would like payment.
Cheers Matt

Hi again Matt, I will have one put aside for you, and you can pay via MasterCard, Visa, PayPal or by Bank Transfer.
For anyone wanting to place an order for the USI-160 isolator, either PM me or just give me a call on 07 5569 2557 and I’ll take the details for you order.
Cheers, Tim.

I've finally got mine in and running. 35mm2, not overly enamoured by my soldering but it's as good as most I've seen. No fuses or circuit breakers, are they needed?
-
Hi B92 8NW, as long as both batteries are in the engine bay, because of the high current capacity of the USI-160, no fuse or circuit breaker is required.
-
Hi Folks, a small number of the USI-160 isolators are now in stock.
With the exception of a few pre orders, it will be first in best dressed.
Cheers.

Tim - Do you take used SC40s as trade ins :D
Seriously though, before I order one, is it likely you will be producing a higher capacity version in the future? (i.e. if there is a USI200 planned, I might wait for that one...).

Hi isuzurover, I actually originally planned to make a 240 amp version but all the research and testing I carried out, I found the 160 amp unit will do 95+% of dual battery set ups intended for use with a winch.
Furthermore, one of the original USI-160 test isolators has just done a run to the Cape ( in a Pajero ) and got a good work out pull the Paj out of mud holes and rescuing other 4x4s.
Someone else on the trip was so impressed, especially considering his own DBS just didn’t do the job, and ordered one to be sent to Cairns so it could be installed before the guy did the rest of his trip across the Centre.
So isuzurover sorry mate, but it is highly unlikely I will produce a bigger isolator in the near future.
Here a little tip for you, if you do get a new isolator, flog the SC40 off on Ebay. I’ve had a few customers do that after they upgraded.
