    Not too surprised.

    Says the guy who's probably not actually involved in manufacturing. This is an old post, and I'm late to the party for sure. But this particular post and its predecessor, thoroughly irked me.

    I feel you @MESO, not only do I come across this problem in my primary business (industrial design and manufacturing for aftermarket automotive), but in my personal life and secondary/triciary business as well (design/Mfg of toys for the special need community, and custom woodwork/leather goods).

    Sometimes increasing the price still doesn't justify the amount of time spent on, or materials cost of an item, but you still want to offer them because, let's face it shit's rad, and we love it.

    I'd love to jump in on the BD-4NMO but I'm a little worried about the ground plane being so offset from the antenna. I have a 1/2 wave (ground plane independent, in theory) that I'll take out of long highway trips or trails. But for around town and short trips I run what's essential a 1/4 wave, and and it's radiation pattern definitely becomes biased without a good centered up ground plane.

    Keep up the good work, man.

    I feel like a little kid from a Disney film, in my PJ’s knelt by the bed “someday ill own a @MESO 3rd brake light...someday.”

    Haha join the club man. It’s been at the top of my wishlist forever. Really the only thing I still have left to complete my dream build (unless I win the lottery and wifey let’s me spend thousands on a bed rack, bumper, or light bars that I’ll rarely have to use).

    One time I legit had a dream that I didn’t click the right “notify me when these are in stock” on the @MESO site and I missed a release haha.

    ::: goes to double check that I’m on all the 3rd brake light notification lists :::

    Mine came out killer. So nice compared to stock. Couldn’t be happier with it.
