Gear Head RC Trail Torch LED Lightbar

[TEDROCKZ]

Very cool and bright! Now get to work I need two really bad

ETA?

I don't want to promise an exact date and not be able to meet or beat it. At this point, we are about 6 weeks away from shipping finished parts.

On a personal note, my wife and I are in the process of buying a home, so my world will be turned upside down and I will have limited access to my shop for the next 4 weeks.

Hi Guys,

Here's an update. Machine shop is expecting to have parts completed in three weeks. I have the PCBs with LEDS completed. At this point, these should be available the first or second week in September. I'll keep everyone posted if it's sooner!

2" version is conceivable. We'll see how this version goes...

A shorter version would be easy to do.

The lightbar is splashproof, but not waterproof. If you want to run submerged, you will need to use potting compound or similar sealant to seal the PCB.

At this time, they are only available complete. If we have enough requests, we will consider selling the PCB only.
