As expected, the low light combined with the bright LED&#8217;s pretty well blew out the camera&#8217;s ability to pick up the lights properly. The white LED&#8217;s are plenty bright, and will almost certainly be turned off at night time as they&#8217;ll be overkill, but will work incredibly well as reverse lights. Contrary to what you see in the video, the turn signals are visible when the running lights are on, however I will be looking into ways to turn off the running lights while the turn signals are engaged. I know of a couple different ways to do this, but will be researching it before acting on it. Any suggestions are always welcome, too!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uTYstcfYUUM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So the first LED turn signal &amp; running \/ reverse light board is complete!
