04goat-11ss was right on the money. great tip. thanks.
I got the scanner in blue, and the remote control 12v relay from amazon.com. took about 1 hr to install. that includes soldering all joints and applying heat shrinking tubing to all the joints. the hardest part was removing the metal plate between the front of the car and the radiator support. no need to post a picture. looks like all the rest. works great from in the car, in front of the car, in back of the car . . . haven't used it yet on the road responding to a call. for all of you first responders out there, I will let you know if the civilians notice it as soon as we get a call. BTW - 04goat-11ss: I grew up on Long Island. where are you? |

Sweeeet Video! Tough to get the speed of the LEDs down in almost any video camera but you got a good one!
Nice Ivan |

Ivan, that's the camera from a droid razr phone... my girlfriend took the vid because my phone didn't have enough charge. The cameras on them are awesome!

Nice vid FL1CK!!!
Also, nice job Jonathan and AAC for making the light bar to fit the mail slot! Finally! I said I would not buy another one until you guys made one specifically for this application, and you did, so, I have two questions however: 1. When I had the RGB scanner, I could control it from inside the car. So this one can't be? 2. Can you PM me a price for this in the RGB Colorshift? Shipping to 23803 + tax?

Having issues with the remote and system, it won't go into demo mode anymore and the remote doesn't control it from any distance more than 2 inches from the eye. I looked at the remote through my cell phone camera (if you do this you can see the IR light) and it looks like my remote eye is pointed at a weird angle and sends a really weak signal if pointed straight at the camera (therefore if pointed straight at the receiving eye). I'll see if I can get a vid up to show what I'm talking about.

I really want to see this on and off with nightshade on the scanner. Anyone have a picture? I want a complete stealth look since I cant stand the look of bare leds. Pictures anyone?

The flow seems broken
Hi
I think this looks great but the transitions (or flow) look sooooo blocky. Its like someone programed this in chunks of 4 rather than each LED. it would be so much better if a little more time was put into the programing. if you want to know what i mean, youtube search "2010 Camaro scanning light" its a shame because this product is so close to being amazing (in my mind anyway) |

Just so it's known, Jonathan is helping me get everything right with my scanner and I couldn't be happier with the customer service from him. No worries at all, and I will let everyone know when it's all worked out. Still a happy customer!

Not a deal-breaker, but just curious. How is this one different?
