LiquidTT group buy

hm so i can just leave it on in my car and it will "go to sleep?" i just want to know. As for my radio there may be an electric problem in my car and it may also be the unit. If i turn the power completely off on my radio and plug this in the radio does not come on... It just may be the way the eclipse decks work... who knows.

You weren't, but...
Hey, learn something new every day! I didn't know it did that. So, you CAN turn it off, why don't you read the d*mn directions ; ) Hold the "joystick" up for two seconds, and let go. The screen will dim out. Then press the button to "wake" the screen back up - you will NOT need to re-enter the code (the unit is powered the whole time, just the display is off).
As for "auto off", the screen will dim after 1 hr. You do not need to turn it off unless you plan to leave your car for several days (I have left mine on for 4 days and the battery was still fine).
For the radio, I know there is an issue with VAGCOM and aftermarket radios... It has something to do with the k-line, which is what is being tapped (I think) with the liquidTT... I will need to look at this some more to see if it is related. Can you use a VAGCOM on your car right now?

even so, though i dont have mine yet, you make it sound like its a PITA to enter the code haha... i hope yours is like ZZZZ and you have to scroll through the alphabet everytime. haha jk...
but yea your right, youd still have to do the code, but MCP seemed to offer the solution by the hold up for 2 secs... try it out

Hmmm.... ok. So my options right now are:
A. Leave my Liquid TT on all the time, or until 1 hour when the screen goes to sleep
B. Enter the "code" every time I start my car
I'm an electrical engineer. The code is dumb as hell. A relay or transistor could save many hours of screen life. What don't you guys understand? The PCB is designed poorly.
