I know it's used for RTP, but is this meant to be used full-time? Or do you install the Ostrich, tune it, then burn a chip with the program once you're happy with it?

 

Nevermind, found the answer.

 

Ill post the answer anyways for people that might find this thread later. The ostrich is powered by batteries and it will last a very long time. You should have no problem running it in your car full-time

 

its not exactly powered by batteries...they are used to keep the program in memory when the car is not providing power to the unit. So its actually powered by the car (ecu) and the batteries make it so the memory stays when the car is off...
