Big question here, has anyone have the know how to put your break lights and all other lights on a blackout switch? Or is just putting the break lights on a switch easier? Or anyone got a good suggestion on how to do blackout without using duck tape on the tail lights? Haha

What are you trying to accomplish? Purpose? It's possible to control all lights with a single "override" switch. It would probably involve "interrupting" the lights with a relay for each, in series with the fuse for each circuit involved. The control switch would power provide key-on power to the relays so removing that power would dump the lights. If you want some lighting to work key-off, the those relays would get their power from the Aux and would best be wired using the relay's NC contacts. That way the relay coil wouldn't be a constant drain, only being powered for lights off dump.

Here’s a pic of it in progress. Got a ways to go still.

Looks good. How ‘bout a front shot?

Will soon. Didn’t take any that night because it wasn’t finished and been busy wiring up a shipping container with power. Just moved and got a lot of other things going on, but this week should have more stuff completed and will post pics.

I truly hate to give you redskins any more ammo than you already think you have, but you speak'um truth, but only in a manner of speaking:

"Because the colors of light travel at different speeds, they get bent by different amounts and come out all spread out instead of mixed up. Violet travels the slowest so it is on the bottom and red travels the fastest so is on the top."

Now before ya'll get all red-faced excited and start prancing around the campfire with your war paint on, I'll just point out that just 'cause the "skin" of your sxs is red, all the other colors that are firmly attached to the red parts is going to slow you down and negate any red advantage. Those slower colors, that your red butt is firmly attached to, is going to make the whole shebang only as fast as its slowest component color. Or, scientifically speaking, "So there!".

I liked the theory that red is faster, so I added some to my P5.

Nice! It does remind one of "nuclear launch" panel on desk of what passes for our "Fearless Leader".

Just for clarification, that's not a P5, it's a P1k.

Question for all, is a bed liner mat worth it for the 1000-5? I do have passengers back there occasionally and I have been hauling dirt as well. Guess the real question is, does it work half way decent, and durable?

It works great, I've goy the OEM Honda liner, but scars up the top outside of the bed rails, I just use plastic in the bed now.

 

[Chad J]

Nice! Yeah I was thinking of a mat. I saw those full bed liners online, look nice but not as easy to store if not using as a rolling up a mat.

 

[Chad J]

Finally getting to doing my winch wiring, dual battery, IR driving light, and rear light hook ups.

 

[Alder Wood]

Do you need NVG's to see with the IR light?

 

[Chad J]

Yeah

this was taken in TN over Christmas.

The bed mat is worth it. I purchased the kiwi master from Amazon in October 21 and paid $80 for it. Lay it out in the sun to make it pliable after you get it. That way it will naturally lay flat after being in storage rolled up. Take it from the heat of the sun and place it into your bed and it should lay flat and nice on it's own. You can find all kinds of brands on Amazon.

I bought a heavy rubber stall mat from tractor supply and cut it to fit. It only cost me about $28.

I’m sorry but blue isn’t tactical unless you’re in the Navy. And until we see actual weapons systems mounts on said tactical vehicle, it’s just another smurf buggy…even the dog is embarrassed…and probably wondering why it’s not getting a tacticool vest filled with treats and fuzzy squeaky wabbits….anyway, nice rig…lol

Yes you are correct for a land vehicle. So first step I took was changed that color. I’m slow on pics and progress since I just moved across the state and just got it. But more pics to come. Got the IR light mounted. Waiting for switches to arrive. Should be tomorrow hopefully. But gonna go out with it for the first time since I got it for some trails. Machine gun mounts are not to common on them in real world. Sometimes they get mounted on depending on mission config, but not always even at work. It’s more of an infill/ exfil vehicle than attack vehicle.

 

[Chad J]

But I think I’m gonna change the brush guard from FDE to Desert tan.

 

[Chad J]

I got camo net ordered for the top, will look and work better for drone coverage than a paint job anyways. Still got a lot of work to do, but coming along slowly.
