I have a couple of 6154 for sale if anyone want to go cheap. Like with speakers in an audio system, spend it on that not an amp or in this case buying more bling. YMMV

Between a VAS 6154 clone and a T6PT3G, would there be a middle ground tested?

Thanks!

It says it does, there's a table comparing the options.
I might get this and update my PIWIS or buy another one to get back in the game. I plugged the cayenne MY24 to my PIWIS v38, and it was as good as if it was a different brand. Most of the modules that could be read, the coding options came as gibberish.

PowerMax 12v 100 Amp Charger Converter Power Supply w/ Alligator Clamps
Part No. PMBC-100LK
$298.95
Mine just arrived, did you go with this one?

@siberian IIRC you have this one too? To connect to the car, you don't disconnect the battery do you? See the first bullet on the instructions?

Thanks!

We have our 100A unit in use every day, for over 2 years now, and holding up well.
If U start your engine with that hooked to it, and then shut it back down, U need to cycle the Power Button on the maintainer, so it starts working again.
[Once it senses charge rate from the car, it goes into stand by 13.60V, but not putting anything in the battery. ]

So do you guys set the voltage to 13.6 v for diagnostics and coding and have the switch set to fixed voltage output?

I had mine set to 13.4v but now, given my current predicament, recommendation is 14.2v - especially if doing any Campaign updates. Yes fixed voltage

Thanks, did you find 13.4v was too low, hence the change to 14.2v (predicament)?
