PULSE! Third brake light modification

[D1JL]

Updated the video to show the initial pulsation and then what happens after you tap immediately after, then how it pulsates again after 10 seconds.

The one I use does that as well.
So people just have more options.

Definitely, no worries. Just showing people general functionality to get an idea.

Interested too. In Canada too. Shipping free?

 

[Chris G]

I'll take one.

Since this is NOT a vender's thread I will offer another alternative.

Brake_Light_Pulsar

I have been using the very same one for 13 years now and it was only $25.00.

I'm interested. If we can find the right clips and make it plug and play/reversible I'm in for sure

OK I received and installed mine today, thank you for the quick shipping. Took a little longer for me because there was literally only 1 inch of wire exposed from the car once everything was disconnected, very short! but with a little creativity I got it taken care of and the results are quite nice. Thanks again for making me aware of this mod, it's a great one for sure.

I'm glad it works well for you! It's a great mod for sure.

Looks good. And if you repeat press it goes straight to solid like advertised?

Yes, it's just like the video that OP posted.

This is where I bought mine http://www.3rdbrakeflasher.com/brake-light-flasher-c-65/. The pulses are completely programmable (speed and number of pulses). It also has different timer options that allow it to delay in traffic. Literally took 5 mins to install and only $20. They even have another pulsator with less options for $15. Can't beat it.

I have my pulse set so fast that the camera doesn't pick it up well.

Hmm I like options. If the plug and plug one for the mustang is a no go this is a good option. How is it programmed?

He explains it all here, it's actually really easy. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PrQNG9RU2Jo&ebc=ANyPxKoV0wlDuW7ZHm6t0kN7s814n4fxyU_W0ar1qMGSys_MEqfqoaWULCDYQFvdHrjZCBTa5CrVZ_9cqI7j_j3r_X1ajHKobw

Looks like there are some good options out there. $50 is a lot to pay for a few components and wires, $20 is more like it. Still I like having one that comes with connectors and has the circuit protected and insulated and does not need to be programmed.

Either way this is a great cheap mod that has made my day!

 

[Kristin]

Thanks for including a video. I'll probably do this.

Hey just another review/thought after a week or so with this mod....

1. People have DEFINITELY backed off especially at stops. It is noticeable. The Pulse piece that I got (opposed to other similar modules) has a pretty mean/aggressive flashing burst that communicates BACK OFF! Not placebo - multiple people have gotten behind me at a light and stayed about 8 feet from the car where before people would pull up much closer. This is great.

2. While I think this is a great mod I think that if the plug and play option that some are looking into becomes an option, it is a much better way to go, especially if it was the same price. That way there would be no issues installing. You might remember from my previous post that I had such a small amount of wire play I decided to solder the connections for longevity. But if a plug and play option becomes available it would be the way to go, as I don't see the average car owner want to solder in such closed quarters.

Thanks again OP for raising awareness of this great mod.
