Yeah still have it... on 110,000 miles and to date it has been very reliable. Had a leaking front diff about a week after I got it but that was quickly fixed under warranty. It's quite economical for what it is giving over 30mpg and the 13amp socket in the cab has been used far more than I...
I have a 2020 Wildtrak which did 60,000 on the original tyres and there was plenty tread on them when I got them changed....... absolutely no grip but plenty of tread.
Nickel is a poor conductor relative to gold and copper. I see the benefit of gold providing a non oxidising connector but in my head the conductivity can't be more than the nickel layer that it has to pass through to get to the copper.
Like I said I'm not electrically minded but the connection is made on the gold plating for good conductivity, it then has to pass through a layer of nickel (poor conductivity) to get to the copper (good conductivity)..... I don't get the benefit.
I didn't know what "Wattgate" was so googled them...... Nice health warning on the products page.
Also not being electrically minded what is the benefit to gold or rhodium plating on connectors?
If you really need or want bluetooth the only quality option is the Cambridge Alva but it is a bit out of budget at £849 or £599 if you are a Richer Sounds VIP.
