Let there be ESK8 lights

So if I’m following right your suggesting binding 2 receivers to 1 transmitter?

No, I was actually suggesting binding 3 receivers to one transmitter.

@b264 What device/software would you use to implement the active brake lights? I’m at a loss ever since my photon melted. I’m impatient, want to install active brakes and a horn but i missed out on beta for the ttl system

Check out this project. I’m not sure if @Mich21050 is still working on it but it just may be what you’re looking for.

I really want to design a simple controller for just head and tail lights, but it will have to wait till my other projects are in more stable states.

Yeah, something like that :arrow_up: or I have some code I wrote for an ATTINY2313A microcontroller that works great.

Right now there isn’t anything on the market … yet …

Well j just found out that the metal bracket holding the lightbar to my board is made with very crappy material…screw pulled through it with vibrations and kept a piece to itself. Time to create a new one

Yep, I have a huge washer on mine

That mount sucks, I had the same issue. Then when I added washers to distribute the load, the two arms broke in half instead of the base lol.

@Saturn_Corp thought it would happen. It’s just a bitch to install (I have to dissemble the entire truck to get to my screw)

Did smthng similar for my bar lights. Mounting bracket is made out of steel that I just transformed from a light blank-up cover plate.

Why does that cable hurt so much to look at? Either way that’s a badass build…I like it.

Some like symetrical layouts. You wont be able to see much cabling underneath anway :wink:

The rear light is amazing but the front light is not really bright enough to see obstacles so I think ill be mounting a small flashlight on my helmet.

So are you going to have a remote in both hands?

Mount the arm to your truck and the casing to your board, so it indicates which direction you’re leaning.

You can use the same general idea as mounting a steering damper to a truck, and just modify to suit.

@malJohann I’m not certain if this is directed at me and if so, what it says :crazy_face:
