Hello,

I just did my first long road trip with the RIOCar, and it performed excellent. However, 5 hours into it, I got the Hijack high temperature beep. I just notched up the alarm threshold a few degrees, (i forgot what the default was), and obviously the alarm stopped.

The question is: what setting should I set the alarm for? I assume the critical component that needs protection is the hard drive. Is there a spec on the nominal operating range of the drive?

Also, I thought of a cool hack if possible: can the auxillary power line be conditioned with the temperature alarm? If so, that line can be used to power a fan only when things get hot. (fans suck in audio components.)

thanks
