Electronics » SkeneLights - Using high beam as trigger for alert feature.

I installed the Photon Blaster on my 2018 RS. I took the signal wire for the alert feature and added it to the signal wire for the brake light as suggested.

Problem is that if I want to "alert" someone in front, tapping the brake twice seems odd as to get the light to come on, I feel like I'm scrubbing off speed in order to ensure the light came on.

So, I'm thinking of moving the signal wire to the high beam...which is normally NOT on. My guess is that the easiest point to tap into the circuit may be on the harness going to the high beam bulb.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

What an unusual (bizarre) requirement.

What's wrong with using the headlight flash button ?🤔

I admit, I was about to ask ‘Why?’ But for once I curbed my smart Alec response and looked up what Photon Blasters actually are. Two discrete (bright) flickering orange lights mounted low down on the forks.

So not a ‘blind the bastards’ and expect them to get out the way but a ‘firm’ I’m here don’t ignore me. Not saying I’m going to fit some anytime soon, but I can see the benefit to attract the attention of the blind texting distracted morons out there.

As to how to make them work, no idea!

Or, in the alternative, can the sensitivity of the brake light switch be adjusted so it is more easily triggered by a gentle pull of the hand brake (before the brake pads engage)?
