Community Mongoose (Reprogramming Vehicle Interface) Lending Thread

[m_bt54]

I see there are several people in central Illinois looking to borrow a Mongoose. I'm in Litchfield and could help out.

Great to see it. This is exactly what I was hoping to see when I suggested posting your location. I’d personally rather drive an hour or so to meet someone than deal with the logistics of shipping my mongoose

I want to make sure I have a proper battery tender as I’m going to start updating my truck through FDRS with the mongoose cable I purchased off Amazon

I got the Noco Genius10 10a smart battery maintainer

will this be okay to use while updating my truck?

No, that is just a charger and not a power supply. You can try and you may get lucky, but what is recommended is a 20amp minimum power supply. The Clore PL2320 is what I use. $100 on Aamzon.

^ Same here, except I bought mine from Amazon.



Seriously, @dadrew, it's the one many here use.

For battery maintenance, I'd grab the 1A or 2A NOCO. That's all you need if you don't drive often enough to keep the battery fully charged.

I should be good?

Question: A friend is willing to loan me his Clore PL2310 (which is the 10amp vs 20amp) so that I can use the power supply mode, for FDRS updates. Would that work OK or are those extra 10amps absolutely necessary? Would save me $100 by not having to buy the 20amp model.
