That's definitely a pain in the ass. For the price of these lights, we definitely shouldn't have to deal with these issues. I'll add you to the list.

Here is the current list. The numbers are growing by the day. Once we get at least 20-25 people, we should begin to request full refunds.

Has any of you guys noticed that if you disconnect the positive cable that goes to the battery from the lights, the halos continue to turn on when you unlock/lock the car? It looks like the halo gets power from a different source.

Or maybe it's just mine.

You can add CyberCoaster too. his ZL1 was dead for the exact same reason when he left it unattended for a bit. Which also happened to his Cyber Grey SS. Only Common denominator was his tail lights.

I absolutely will! Thank you. This list is growing by the minute. Technostalgia better pay attention. These taillights are a joke. I don't care how good they look, as the potential downfalls outweigh any positives by far.

I have had mine in for about 3 months, my car is a daily driver and I have had no issues, I also have the AAC
Not really sure what you guys are experiencing My show mode wire is connected to a remote control. The one thing I have noticed if you turn on show mode and tap the brake show mode appears to go off..... But it dosent the lights will then do all sorts of goofy things .

Having a daily driven car with these LED taillights seem to be virtually the only wait to keep the car battery from dying. If its sits longer than a few weeks, if seems like trouble unfortunately.

I will stick a inductive amp meter on and see if there is any current drain. what if you guys take the power wire and run it thru a ign switched relay ?
That way you would never have power to the lights unless the key is on
Probably be best to break the Ground instead of positive

Add me to the list. Mine is a daily driver. Go out today after not driving it for only a day and find the show mode is on by itself and dead battery. Going to check the purple wire and disconnect the pink wire to reset the light's computer and see...

This is definitely a bummer. I will add you to the list as well.
