    I've got a member sending me a single Cyclone. I will do some design and mockup once I get exact dimensions.... maybe you can send 4 more to get some pictures;)
    But, by a quick measurement... these look like they will fit SWEET in the 3rd gen housing

    What model does RI have to offer?

    I agree! That might be too bright, but then again it would only be 3 on at a time (on the 3rd gen at least) when driving/braking. Definitely worth seeing and testing first though!

    And nope, we have the white in both a clear lens and a diffused. Plus red, amber, blue, and green.



    Can't emphasize enough how much I love this project. Things like this are one of the major reasons why the Cyclone light exists. We want it to be super versatile and used in many different ways, only limited by ones imagination. @mesojdm I know we have a PM convo going, but we're on board with helping out with this!

    How do you get the dimensions of existing things exported to CAD?
    You must scan it or take pic and bring it in as an Xref into CAD?

    Yeah I worded that wrong. White is the only color available with diffuse.
    I'm Donating my cyclone. Should be there this week.

    You think regular or diffuse would be better up there? Trying to figure out which to buy.

    Looking forward to how this turns out too.

    I have a scanner, and also take physical measurements via calipers. Iz too poor for 3D scanner..maybe one day


    Much appreciated! Help like this for the little guys is what makes a great company:thumbsup:
    And 'TOO BRIGHT"... COME ONNNN
    Me too!


    As for the lens patterns, I definitely think diffused across the board is the way to go. I went wheeling with a few buddies yesterday and one had a red cyclone mounted in the middle of his jeep spare tire and I was really impressed with the output. And it was much thinner than I expected.
