New Product Annoucement: Programmable dimmer for auxiliary LED driving/fog lights

[jskene]

Advance Notice for ADV Rider Inmates:

Many auxiliary LED driving & fog lights are too bright for oncoming traffic when run at full brightness, yet need to be switched rapidly to full power when road and traffic conditions require and permit this.

Skene Design, developer of Photon Blaster and P3 Lights, now has a solution. Our Intelligent Lighting Controller allows you to program your aftermarket LED lights to operate at any desired intensity when in low power mode and switch immediately to maximum power when the high beam is activated. If an optional toggle/rocker switch is added, then three independent brightness settings are supported.

The controller not only controls the LED's brightness, but also serves as the relay for either two separate LED lights of up to 30 watts each, or a single light of up to 60 watts.

This product is now available here:

Please see this thread for information on a product that does exactly that:

Any idea on the pricing?

What this guy said :) Plan on installing 2x24W LEDs on my DRZ and would love something like this.

Received controller with updated software in exchange for the first one, now also working great on the BMW (R1200GS)
with delayed hi-beam on after ignition is being turned on (basically you have more time to enter programming mode...)
The dimmer now has a wider adjustment range at the lower LED brightness levels.
I'm not affiliated with the seller but that's really a nice product that intelligently fills a market niche.

Rocket Moto proudly sells and offers professional installation of all Skene Design safety lighting products, for over a year, now.

Terrific, innovative products from great company.

, please do not post in your competitors thread as per the posted rules. Thank you

I have Jerry's photon blasters and P3 lights.. looking forward to this new product

Sorry about breaking the rules, however I regard our relationship as more of a partnership than a competition.

This new dimmer design, which the vendor himself said he was not going to build, will help him sell many more lights.

This should save a lot of work for everyone. Sounds like what I was about make myself. Can't wait to see how compact it is. Can you post a sneak peak pic? I'd rather buy it than make it, so you're timing is perfect.

Would this work with heated gear? Same principle, no?

Yes, it will work for heated gear, but there are other solutions out there that I think would be better suited to the task.

I think you said if you're using a handlebar switch you can have 3 settings (Lo and Medium with handlebar switch and Hi via OEM Hi-Beam light switch)

With a three position switch, you can have three independent brightnesses, including off. Switching on the high beam always sets the lights to maximum power.
