Event: August 1, 2026, Huntington Beach, CA

After you integrate the TPMS chip into the main board, how many sets of sensors can it pair with? I had one kit for each car. There are kits for RVs/trailers that offer longer BT range and 6 sensors. Is the HU meant to stay with one vehicle or move from one to another?

Honestly, not sure haven't thought that far lol I'll have to add it to my testing once I get everything running.

Dinoboomer here. We didn't have car seats, maybe we used seatbelts, mom smoked in the car, and we checked tire pressures by hand with a pencil gauge.

Normal Scary times those were. 🤣

I am seeming to see a lot more people in this thread planning to attend this event than ... well any event thread ever. There may be a real crowd there if it scales the same with people not on the forum.
Maybe a new thread in the meetups and events to get a count and in case anyone wants to get a plan together.

They have been promising the events will come to the Mid-Atlantic/ Mid-West for a year now.

I’m getting pretty damned tired of seeing all the events in California and New York.

No offense to California and New York, but damn!!

So you missed the event at Navy Pier in Chicago this May, obviously.

Before I found this forum, I was under the impression Slate would email me if an event was nearby.

Nope!

Nope!

Same! I found the events page, and then found a form that said:

STAY IN THE LOOP.
There's a lot more coming. New features. Fresh drops. Big updates. Leave your email and we'll keep you one step ahead. No spam, just good stuff.

I appreciate the relatively low volume of emails, but they were only a couple hours away from me in Detroit last summer and I didn't hear a peep.

Yes, a couple hours is a long drive, but if they're never planning on coming to my city I'd still like to be notified of the closest events!

I've subscribed to emails for new posts in my region under the "Local Shows/Events" section of the forum, If I manage to shake the addiction I'm trusting y'all to post new events there:

Hope you all have your tape measures and measuring apps ready. We are counting on you!

 

[Skippy]

So far, the consensus is, according to @danielt1263 and @E90400K in a related thread:
24 x 26 x 19.5"

Counting on @Skippy to settle this once and for all!

The math checks out but the measurements will tell the tale!

 

[cadblu]

You would get at least 5 extra 😎 points if you come back with definitive frunk measurements. At least 5

@Skippy:
Regarding measurements of the frunk, we know it’s 7 cf but not a perfect cube. The space is irregular and somewhat sloping/contoured because of how the front-end components (including the cooling module) are packaged.

Would you be able to get us the max opening length and width at the top, and also at the floor of the frunk? Also can you determine if the depth is uniform from back to front?

All of this without being too conspicuous.
No pressure…

 

[Doctors Do Little]

Nah. Be bold.

Bring an assistant to take measurements and a film crew. Wear a SlateForums polo. Just bust up in there like you represent 2,000 maniacs and are the appointed emissary that is the difference maker in their success.

Then quietly take out your iPhone and use the measure function and do your thing?

Your choice.

We are here if you need advice.

 

[tubes]

We need to all pitch in and get Skippy a laser scanner.

If possible could someone confirm height of open tailgate from ground? If not perhaps ground to top of closed tailgate and height of tailgate itself?
