[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 4884010, member: 550915"] The only problem with daisy chaining remotes is that you're effectively wiring them in parallel and that decreases the impedance seen by the remote on circuit in the HU. Decreased impedance means increased current. Most HU remote circuits are designed to be very low current. Try to pull too much current through them and you'll either 1) blow the circuit or 2) droop the voltage on the circuit to the point that it won't turn on the devices that you're trying to trigger. With a basic relay you can switch more amps that you could fit in the car and the draw off the HU is the same regardless of number. [/QUOTE]
