Ouch! Thanks for the info I was just about to connect my new LED navigation lights to the X-Port wiring. I'll wire direct into the battery leads instead. As a matter of interest what lights did you hook up and do you know the total amperage of tall the lights added together? Maybe the X-Port power is only designed to take a certain max amp load before the the RX goes belly up.

I've also noticed that there are two or three terminals of the X-port that read as a + voltage (not an earth)
I would think that only one of them would be for supplying power, and the others would be for signaling.
