    I was originally, however due to issues getting the required material, went with steel. Just went with thinner wall in some sections to cut weight.

    Is that easy to hook up and do yourself? I haven't really found any instructions on it.. And how do you choose which strobe pattern? Or do you just choose one and thats it?

    Pretty simple. Hook up a switch and relay. Flasher control wires up between the switch and lights. The flasher control needs its own switch and you can select the patterns.

    What kind of switch do you have on the flasher controller to select different strobe patterns?

    we'll see. Got the Tepui Fest today, so may load it up just to see how I can arrange things. Still have to figure out how to mount my CO2 tanks and Pro Eagle Jack. Never ending game of what can I bring and where can I put it.
