I think it is like 35$USD... but for all I know it could be covered all in black goop... anyhow the tolls a pretty cheap, and with all the projects I am dealing with this one would be lo-priority. :) Hoping to find a group that can jump into this though.. :)

my friend came back on my request, he has one and says it's 150USD.... so this may stay on the back burner for a while...

Yikes... I suspect there may be a collapsable circuit that will zeroize the unit anyway upon opening without the correct tools... so that would be a serious waste.

bleah... so much for that fun...

I'd better get back to preparing these warchalking stickers for printing er, I mean work over here doing tech support... lol multitasking, it's a beautifull thing.

the transponder works similar to a mobil speed pass (only more hitec). the base unit sends out an authorization to transmit the units id code. the code is then read by the base unit and logged, charges, etc. There are some major differences. a speed pass base sends out a power resonating frequency, similar to the system on a rechargable waterproof electric razor or toothbrush. the speedpass then uses this "borrowed power" to send it's id code to the mobil reader. a fasttrak transponder works a similar way (i believe). the major difference is the introduction of battery power (probably just 2032's) and a stronger send/recieve capability to cover the distance. the transponder will not broadcast it's code unless it recieves the right authorization.
the cameras only take pictures when a vehicle passes and it recieved no transponder signal or a bad transponder signal. that does NOT mean that the cameras dont record each and every car anyways. for the same reason that a casino doesn't get rid of it's security videos, you never know when u will need them.
if you people want, i'll destroy a transponder after the con and give you an update on it's hardware and how to avoid mem scrubs (if any).

p.s. this is the convertable capital of the world! transponders are free!

Yes the people want, don't forget to include pictures ;) ... but if you get the silver bracelets, don't look this way ;) :)

Hey let go of me man, who the fuck is melvin? I don't know a goddamn melvin?! What?! Kelvin? I don't know a Kelvin either!... Ack let me go!...

Hmmm... could be a group effort? ;)

if i can get some good info out of it, maybe i'll do a demo at DC11.

if you want to know how it works,
if you want it taken apart,
if you want it put together,
i'm the man

i'm the hardware guy, my quiet skinny sidekick, petrOl, is the coder.

MUTINY!

That would be something to attend for sure.. especially if you could get the demo working to do the response across a demo grid.. :)

is fasttrak big enough to get peoples attention?
out of state?
