    Anyone know how to hook up a led flasher for my 41.5" bar? Was told I can take off the connector and use a t tap to my current harness.
    I'm not very good with wiring so I don't know what goes where. It has a white, blue, and black wire.

    Is that their wireless remote control? Just looks on their site and that's what I saw.. But that's pretty awesome. I'm gonna have to get me one!

    Might have to email them. Black is obviously the ground, white likely goes directly to the power source and blue goes to the power supply for the led bar.. BUT CHECK WITH THEM!
    Interested in if you like the product or not, been looking at something similar from a different website, but just not a remote. This might be an option though, post if you like it or not!

    Yeah it's their wireless remote. It can make your light bar strobe I think 7 different ways. First response/emergency mod!

    A lot of those did throw me off, those are more meant for brake lights and there's some for turn signals. I know rigid industries makes some as well but offer a 3 amp 12v, 3 amp 24v and a 6 amp 12v

    I'll have to check those out.. I was just thinking of how little I will likely use it to keep it pretty cheap but we'll see.... Always have to be tinkering anyway.

    Wait what are the amperage ratings for the flasher?? This has to be wired directly inline right? Or does it use a relay to power it? In other words can I use it on ~50 amps or so? Or maybe 40? The combined amps of 3 of my bars is 38.26 amps...
    Edit: Then I'm awaiting a couple more lights that I may wire in series as well which will probly bring it close to 50. Idk if I'll be able to use this. Unless it's on a separate series of bars that are wired together. All my bars are wired to switch on with high beams. I'm wondering if I'd be able to tap this flasher into all, or even a few to flash on demand and still have it wired how it is to switch on with high beams..

    For this one, couldn't tell you. I didn't see it on the site so got to ask. I wasn't too worried about it, the description does say meant for led light bars and pods :laser:
