I imagine the time it would take me to DIY some thing would end up costing me more than the op’s light mode night shift kit. It looks too good to pass up. I think I have to invest in my knee and wrist guards before I make this purchase though. They are on 30% off at the moment while they wait for next batch to manufacture ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josiah Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) I know you’re not a salesman @Cerbera but you should be because you just closed the deal with me. I just made the purchase! lol I really need to get the safety gear now. This Electric Wheel hobby makes me feel like a kid in the candy store. I’m sure the therapeutic long rides will pay off in the end. Actual dollar spent per hour enjoyed will wind up being a very good ratio.

Josiah Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I live in a rural area but not too far from a downtown one so it will be funny passing the cows in the countryside at night and people thinking there’s an alien abduction occurring. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lols - I do that too - when I get a new wheel, my first hour on it is £4000 / per hour, and from there on the value-for-money only increases - Currently I am on about 50 hours on the Master, so it's already down to £80 an hour ! And if I can just make it last til 1000 hours without a horrible expensive crash then it's £4 a go, which is starting to look pretty reasonable. The aim will be to get it to >4000 hours, so it will have been a pound a ride ! Edited January 28, 2023 by Cerbera 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josiah Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Soldier from the future advanced infantry. not too bad. I’ve been waiting >4 months for the wheel pre order so three weeks for this is nothing. Edited January 29, 2023 by Josiah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbera Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Quick test to see how LM does in the daytime. Sorry about low res... That's mostly red light there, so the least bright of them - others are more visible still; if it wasn't so damn cold up there I would have stayed to demo some other patterns !

Cerbera Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) Lols - nah, that doesn't look anything like police / emergency services in this country. We don't really do red as a colour for that. They are all about the blue... but yes, definitely draws attention, whether you like it or not. Also, you're only seeing half the lights there. Once the white ones are on as well it starts looking much more like a vehicle. And of course we have the option of going 'stealth mode' with only the headlight on, though admittedly, once you shelled out for a LightMode kit you do feel like you wanna use it !

Cerbera Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) Excellent - it is a lovely box isn't it ?! Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine ! My second set for my new Scorpion ADX-2 is in the post now, and they were kind enough to provide links to just the box clip and the 2 strips so I could make a saving and share one control box between the 2 helmets.

Yes, but only in the Summer months where it is just too damn hot for the Scorpion, or for when I am zipping about on my nice low little MS3. There is something about the Master (and I reckon it's mainly the pedal height) that says 'protect head more' hence the upgrade to the Scorpion. If I were in your boat, with a V13, I might feel secure enough in the TSG. In my book riding a Begode is a bit more 'risky biscuits' !

Lightmode has a specific Robocop-imitating effect where it alternates red blue flashing on each side. That's the one the you want in the States if you'd like to run into trouble in entertainingly short order ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josiah Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) had trouble getting the strips to hold at the fold of the TSG so added a touch of hot glue at the connector point and to the strips where the Lu weren’t holding. I unplugged the gun long before I was done so the glue wouldn’t get scalding hot. Edited March 12, 2023 by Josiah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
