LTA, please clarify whether ERP 2.0 OBU power consumption is too high??

[pwongkk]

Woah so thats 120W.
Did the fuse blew when car was parked or when you were driving halfway?

When parked. B4 driving off, I inserted the cashcard and it is not working. The night before, I still can access the ERP parking gantry.

From LTA Facebook:

For those of you who are wondering about whether the OBU would drain your car battery, the short answer is no. When the vehicle ignition is turned off, the OBU will also switch to sleep mode, which is even lower than the power drawn by the IU today.

Old wait, your IU is ERP 1 or ERP 2?

 

[matrix05]

LTA say current is comparable, not low right?

So the question is what exactly is comparable?

For example, the top speed of a stock Cherry QQ is comparable with a 2020 F1 car, both are less than Mach 0.3

This type of answer put in exam sure fail. What is the speed of the car? Ans comparable to a horse.

Erp1

Erp1

Your IU likely faulty already, pls upgrade to OBU

No planning to have that ugly unit in. Anyway my car just past 8 years. Will be the last few to install.

Lately I found my scooter battery weaken! I used to changed my battery about every 2 years once but now is 14 months, after the OBU was install i found the my engine sometimes can start some cannot and the OBU at times it will auto restart when I'm riding on the road! OBU really gives problems?!

 

[Elfblade]

It might take 50 years for them to calculate....

Must monitor 1st b4 they even move to calculation.

 

[jgrader]

Haizzz looks like battery gonna kapot soon

 

[justmelah]

Normal dry cell battery can last aro 2yrs 9 months. How many years is your scooter? Could have some problem with your starter if the bike is too old. Best to park your scooter under shelter.

For me, in 6 months the ERP 2.0 I'm using the 2nd unit already.

poly FY airgineer oun sell designed, oun sell ahproved? can mehh?

They may say it’s confidential cannot tell you

How confidential can it be?
U disconnect it, plug into it with a 12v power source and a watt meter, can get the power consumption already.

LTA think we stupid, no wonder come out with such junk device.

 

[BlackWing1977]

For something to overheat, means the current draw must be substantial.

LTA please clarify how much is the power draw when the car is parked, how long can we leave our cars parked before the car battery becomes too weak to start the engine

Can LTA please quash the rumours that the OBU would suffer permanent damage if internal battery of OBU becomes flat

In before they ask you to upgrade to EV... EV battery big big..

 

[standarture]

This OBU is as hot as my phone playing high graphics settings games. I really dunno what the heck is the OBU doing......... The coding or hardware must be super inefficient. Hope a brave soul will tear down the insides.

EV battery too high voltage wor. Usually have another battery

 

[VEF888]

If I’m not wrong, the old iu, the carpark guys can come and scans to check season parking.
Won’t be surprised if one day someone say an authorised agency can go and scan for datapoints

how many years ago was that? that one is using RFID before the carpark gantry was set up in every carpark bah.

 

[Emperor_Hippo]

Possible to disconnect the erp if we leave the car in the carpark when travelling overseas for a few weeks?

I tell u aft i come back frm my nearly 4wk holiday hokay?

I got a strange feeling car OBUs are helping to process data for bike OBUs.
