Re: LED Lighting project for bike
Token: I wanted to see your thoughts on using a 48v to 12v converter for LED power? In some of the conversations I’ve had a few people suggested that may be the most efficient way to power LEDs given this will be on on Ebike. My buddy suggested the power on the LoRA equipment will be low enough that...

If you walk into an ATT store, they will be able to take the phone and contact the owner.

Re: LED Lighting project for bike
Yeah the more I'm reading, the more I think I'll go with 12v. I'm finding lots of sources online as well. I just figured I'd start here and Reddit.

Re: LED Lighting project for bike
To update, in some other discussions I'm having, I'll probably look a bit lower on the LED density and have something in the range of 150 on the bike as the power requirements for the 300 strip listed would be too much.

In the grand scheme of things I’m starting from “basic”. I have basic soldering and coding skills, but my neighbor can help out as he is definitely at the professional level for everything Involved.

LED Lighting project for bike
Anyone have any good resources to learn about setting up individually addressable LED lighting strips for a bike. I’ve used the little El Wire strips in the past but I figure I wanted to take on a slightly more involved project this year. Are there any good online resources that can provide guidance...

A voided ticket for various reasons would go back into STEP. There are plenty of reasons it could happen. Not saying it will but I’ll take any available options at this point.

Hopefully everyone remembered to register for the OMG STEP option at noon today. It is a different tier ticket with different pricing so you have to go through the OMG STEP registration process.

Re: Two random PacNW questions
We left a rest stop north of Eugene at 6am on about 2.5 hours of sleep last year and made it to Gate Road at 5. I’m hoping to flip that this year and do the bulk of the driving on day one. It is about 30 miles different to use the Yakima route from what google maps shows. When I pulled it up yesterd...

Two random PacNW questions
Anyone from Seattle do the drive east to avoid Portland? Last year we had a late start so the traffic heading south wasn’t so bad but we will be leaving Seattle area at 3pm on Thursday and figure hitting Portland around 6 is bad. How are the roads heads south out of Yakima? I’m hoping. To get to Kla...

Re: If you are driving from the Pacific Northwest free staying at EaglesNest RV Park
Thanks for the continued offer of this. We had hoped to make it down last year but had a delay in our departure so didn't make it that far. This year that delay shouldn't exist so we'll be shooting to make our pit stop at EaglesNest.

This is always done with friends who didn't get a ticket through the main sale channel. ...
