It looks like a great idea, and to make it universal (more-or-less) to GLs is a pure stroke of genius! I will be very interested when the 1800 version is available, and to see your other "Smart modules". Might even ride down for a face-to-face purchase on one of my company's forced vacations (so they won't have to pay out so much when the layoffs happen) come September. Just shows how good of a judge of character he is........

Rudy, One thing I would like to see is a device that will give me 4 way flashers on my GL-1000. I have LED lights all around and have a solid state flasher, but no 4 way flash capability. It would be nice to have for PGR/parades and when having a problem on the side of the road. Let us know what can be done.... John

Let me look at it when I get some time this summer and figure out the best way to accomplish this for you. The SmartModule could easily handle it but I wonder if we aren't swatting flies with a sledge hammer in this case. Might be a cheaper way to do it but it should be doable in any case. You may need to remind me about it by then. I have been thinking about other things in that area so that could possibly be an easy part of it.

I'll just be glad to make back the multi-thousands I have invested in it at this point. But that's always the way, isn't it? I really appreciate your and everyone's support. The advice and encouragement has been a real help in getting this first run out. For those that want to see the progress, I stuck a progress picture up in my gallery last night so you can see it as it comes along... You can see it here. http://www.goldwingfacts.com/photopost/showphoto.php/photo/6101/size/big/cat/recent/limit/recent Last edited on Tue Apr 7th, 2009 10:02 pm by Rudy ____________________ Rudy '89 GL1500K 100k with DELO-400 & Michelin Tires.

Awesome idea Rudy! I'm in for one when the 1200 module comes out!! I like the kickstand idea, except I may need an electric shock in the seat if I put it in gear with it down!!

Just find a place to mount a relay and a spare ignition coil and I'm sure we could work something out. Soon as I get my hands on a 1200 for a day, we should be whistling Dixie.

Thanks guys. People seem to like them pretty well. I just added a little extra feature to the product this weekend I call the 'Snorey feature' because Snorebaby requested it. It provides an additional output for non-SmartLight LEDs like those on our illuminated switches to be able dim themselves at night using SmartLight's photo-detector. Great idea Snorey. And Rod, it doesn't look near as good as your avatar does. I'm working on the SmartLight - 1000, 1100 and 1200 series now as well.
