I will need to download realterm and figure this out.

Does it start as soon as you start driving?
Yes

How about in neutral?
I don't know I will test tomorrow

Does it have a heat sink?
No I just force air across the bottom. Max temperature of the plate is 45 degC. I can hold my hand on the plate after a long drive. It doesn't seem to be temperature related anyway.

I have rigged up another 5k pot to substitute for the throttle pot. Friends came over before I could test it and I shouldn't drive it tonight. So I will test in the morning.
