[Fot] Rechargeable Transponder

[Rocky Entriken]

I agree with Bud and Joe. I put a hardwired transponder in my car, and wired 
it directly to my kill switch. The concept is, if the car is on, the 
transponder is on. Never have to fuss with charging it or remembering to put 
it in. If I plan not to use it for a long time (last year I didn't race, 
just autocrossed), I take out the line fuse.

If you're planning to swap it around multiple cars, then just set it up with 
easy disconnects. Actually, the line fuse itself is an easy disconnect for 
the hot wire. Your easy disconnect for the ground may just be a sheet metal 
screw and a Phillips-head screwdriver.
