Hi Luke,
I think the trickle charger has activated the Thunderbox somehow.
Why not also connect the – directly to the battery?
The K6 requires minimum current when it is switched off, so you don’t have to worry about draining the battery.
If you have connected the – to the battery and you hold the yellow wire against the + of the battery and the K6 starts up well, works well and if you disconnect the yellow wire from the + of the battery and the K6 switches off well, then you know that the K6 is working well. You should then look for the problem with the Thunderbox.
In general, the experiences with Thunderboxes, exCan here on this forum are not positive.
As for the firmware update, you can (almost) not break anything. Use an 8 to 32Gb SD card for the update. And if it doesn’t work, you can always perform the firmware update again.
