The part that concerns me is the remote feature because I assume you turn on the electronics of the system to activate the top which in turn starts a power draw on the battery. For those who have a min. battery charge this could render the car DOA. My procedure for opening the top is to start the car and while in open loop idle I open the top. By the time the engine goes into closed loop at reduced idle the top is down and stowed and I drive away. If the one button press was locked out until the ignition was on and the car started I would think this exposure would be eliminated. Other then that it's a great feature.

Do I assume that the rest of the electronics don't wake up when the top is energized and is there any electrical load on the hyd. pump system. I just replaced my 5 year old battery that was at 80% max charge rate. I didn't start seeing any gremlins yet but with the new battery other then things being brighter there wasn't much change. As I said the modification is great and should have been a mfg. standard.
