Looking to install a dedicated light system on a flux build atleast front lights tail also if possible I’m running catseye rechargable 800 on my other board.
Any recommendations something similar to LaCroix was what I want anyone know of any?
If you are a diy’er you can use our pcb if you like.
Check https://www.rescuestore.net to check it out
Thanks
This looks cool but it’s sold out
There will be some units available next week on thuesday. Was going to make a thread about it
Looking forward to it
Have you seen these?
Never used them, but they look pretty cool.
I have used TTL and it works great @Ricco has some of the best customer service and the lights are real easy to set up. I love how my led chenges color based on the direction my board is traveling. It keeps you safe, makes riding at night easier and really does turn some heads
What all do I need to get to add to my board
@Plaidj, if you are interested in the TTL system, I would gladly help you figure out the parts you would need to get it added to your build. Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have
I’ll throw my 2 cents in the hat. I really like these off road LED pod lights:

1,400 lumens, and takes 9 - 36 volts. I’m just using a Riden adjustable buck converter- DPH5005 (correction - DPS5005), to power them from the battery. They are super bright, in a totally sealed metal casing that’s finned on the back to sink heat, and come with mounting hardware.
Those little things great - Im gonna pick them up. What buck converter did you use?
DPS5005 is what I used. Kind of pricey, but you can find cheaper ones, though I can’t speak for their quality. I’d go with Riden. I wanted something that was adjustable in case I want to power anything.
More (buck) options:

That’s an amazing list.
holy cow! Just another minor PhD in E Sk8 I need to spend 40 hours reading about!
Totally awesome list! Thanks for compiling it!
Whoops, I listed the wrong one, the model I used is this one: DPS5005
Much smaller than the other one.
How difficult is it to hook up
On one my first build
It’s very easy. There’s just 4 wires in total. Positive and negative from the battery go into the IN- IN+, and the headlights go to the outputs. The headlights just get wired together. Here is a picture of the power source/buck converter that reduces the battery voltage to the desired headlight voltage.
