I tore up one of my dome lights while i was installing my mid panel. Decided to put red lights in...little easier on the night vision. They are a little bright so i think ill add a dimmer later on

Seeing as they are LED and ONLY red light, anything green or blue will appear black. Learned that the hard way reading a printed trail map at night.

Whips are so much fun while caravaning at night. Actually easier imo to follow someone because you can easily see the attitude of the machine in front of you. Fun to ride technical terrain directly behind someone you trust at night with whips, as long as they aren’t flashing a billion times a minute lol

I have the 4ft and used to recommend that length but I tell ya I have lowered down and they still get beat and slapped by the trees. I did go in and add in some foam to the back ROPS so that the whips would not smack the roof and that has helped. Prior to that I have had to send back twice for repairs - which they did so no complaints there. I would consider the 3ft.

Do some research on him before you pull the trigger.(pm me if you would like)
I regret supporting him now.
I have not been terribly impressed with the whips I purchased from him. I contacted him about the top 6-8" of my whips turning yellow when on the white setting. He told me to live with it, and that is how the 5v twisted were. It is even more noticeable on 4' and longer whips.
I challenged my brother to build some whips that solved all my issues with the millar ones. He currently has a working prototype, we just need to find the proper whip base material before we try to offer them for sale.

Made these last week using 2812 LEDS 144/meter. They draw some juice though, I had to use a 12v-30amp 5v transformer and @5v they draw 28amps and are BRIGHT. I did not seal my first set well enough and they got water inside the clear heatshrink.
