Oh, thank you. CoolTerm is fairly obnoxious to install, anyway, because they make no attempt to sign their binaries for security guidelines.

Thanks Brian.  Nice that direct edits can be done.

I've just noticed the ECMCables vendor now offers two Bluetooth modules:

MY2013-MY2016 $57 USD in stock

MY2017-MY2018 $75 USD pre-order

What would be the reasoning for the split from model years?  Is the USB cabled version good for MY2013-MY2018 or is there a similar split?

Wow! BrianTRice. Your last 3 statements are quite offensive.

The messaging seems a little muddled.
To get some clarity,
1) Is "the engineer that makes this"  someone at ECMCables.com?
and
2) Which vendor exactly is it that you say had "poor manners" and owed you something?

Given your position within the Zero Community your comments have the ability to influence forum members and guests; negatively, it appears, in this case. 

Depending on your response, it may be that you'll be tasked with substantiating your comments so as not to jeopardize your credibility and good standing.   
 

I called the vendor for this myself just to ask about the situation and got a lot of anger and insults thrown at me, when I was just wondering out of curiosity what the new model difficulty might entail.

The vendor knew that I wrote the material they sourced to develop their kit, and was hostile anyway.

I then went to test some hypotheses about the power pin carefully after checking with other sources and compiled my findings into the above post.

I do a lot of white box reverse engineering and journalistic checkup on claims, and have had my troubles rewarded repeatedly with condescension and rudeness in various ways.

I assure you, if I use an impolite word, it is downplaying a situation I found unpleasant and uncharitable. I very much dislike working in this electric motorcycle space, and look forward to not having to negotiate relationships with highly sensitive vendors with fragile egos in order to learn what’s in my vehicle and how to operate and maintain it.

Did you know that "Whiney BT Rice" is an anagram for "Bitchy Weiner"?

May I recommend that you reconsider posting this way? There’s nothing relevant to you here, and I’m just relaying what politics I have to play to maintain lines of communication.

You may not.

Zero tolerance for personal attacks. This is a technical forum. Not amused with the lack of respect for valued contributors trying to offer help. Unlocking topic and leaving that rude post as-is for context.
