I am considering designing a wireless ignition kill switch for the NSX and I would like to hear opinions from NSX owners before I get too far along. The product would work like this:
1. Small box installs in the NSX in series with the circuit to be disabled. This can be the starter motor or fuel pump. The unit will be designed to handle at least 20 amps of current, so no extra relay would be required.
2. The unit will be designed to work with the existing NSX key fob (transmitter), so no additional transmitter needs to be carried. The unit will "learn" the code of the transmitter during the installation.
3. When starting the NSX, the user will have to push the "unlock" button on the transmitter. The unit will then "unlock" and apply power to the starter or fuel pump and the car will start. The unit will remain "unlocked" as long as the ignition is on.
4. The unit will "lock" automatically when the ignition is turned off and will not draw any power from the battery when the iginition is off.
My goal is a simple design that is easy to use and adds an extra level of security on top of the existing NSX stock alarm system. My retail price target is $50 to $100.
