News
from Retronics

Retronics is the joint venture of two friends with shared and
combined passions for classic motoring, modern and vintage electronics.
Travelling thousands of miles every year, in all weathers, in his
1968 Morris led Andy Winters to realise how useful an intermittent
wiper module adaption would be. With over 40 years experience in electronics,
the expertise of Matt Professor Brainstorm Harris was
put to good use as the pair set about designing, developing and testing
the Retronics Wiper Timer Module or RWTM. More
MG RV8 has the sophistication of intermittent wipe with variable
delay as standard equipment. More

Andy
Winters at Retronics, an innovative auto electronics company,
has been in touch with news of new or improved products in its
range of useful devices for classic cars:
All new Version 2 RWTM windscreen timer module
Andy Winters says "this is now available and is a device
that connects differently to the vehicle and is a very different
unit inside the box! It circumvents some occasional issues we
found with vehicles with more complex wiring". See our
review of the original RWTM in April 2019. More
Hazard light kit
Andy says "we are also launching our own hazard light kit
(the RHLM) which uses our own PCB technology for complete reliability
and accuracy. Press coverage will appear in the next few weeks".
Wiper timer module for non self parking wipers
Andy adds "next on our hit list is an industry first (I
think!) - the RWTM(NSP) - a Wiper Timer Module for non self
parking wipers! Details to follow in due course".

Installing
the Retronics Windscreen Wiper Timer Module
The Retronics Windscreen Wiper Timer Module (RWTM) is
a simple to install module which gives you multiple sweep intervals
for your classic vehicle's one speed (or dual coil two speed)
wiper motor - without removing or replacing any original parts!
With only 4 wires to connect, a retro style control switch &
an easy to hide control box, the RWTM gives you control over
variable delay wiper sweeps in intervals of 2, 3, 4, 8 &
16 seconds. Your wiper motor's original function is unaffected.
The RWTM works on positive and negative earth vehicles and comes
will full instructions & everything you need to connect
the RWTM to your vehicle. More
Update from Retronics on their Hazard Light Module
Andy Winters (Director, Retronics Ltd) has provided some more
details regarding the newly launched Retronics Hazard Light
Module (RHLM). This unit works on positive and negative
earth vehicles. It also works with traditional and LED bulbs,
or any combination. If any bulb blow, the others keep flashing
at the correct rate. .The Retronics' retail RHLM model works
on vehicles with positive or negative switched indicators.
The PCB
(printed circuit board) used on all current and future Retronics
products is their own unique design. Their board uses double
thickness track and a heavy duty relay - thus it can safely
carry more current than competitors' boards with no modifications
needed to it. The Retronics' modules have RF Suppression
built in. Reverse polarity protection is also built in. |
