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.

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.

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. I’d just like to find some resources so I can pull together basic understanding of as much as I can b...

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.

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...

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...

I’m a bit jealous but I’d have no problem with someone cruising by me slowly on a bike in exodus. If you can make it to cedarville the north route is awesome. It would be a blast on a bike.

Oooh! I’m interested. But you have to promise me the grey and black water tanks will be totally full, all fresh water gone, and the whole thing trashed with dust and garbage. I want to make sure “my half” of the week is spent wallowing in your filth, before I get to detail clean the damn thing and ...

I actually got a notifications Friday from the step program, I got my tickets, I thought this was a waste of time, my bad

FOMO or main sale? What was your confirmation time (request to server or email)

I just paid $494.87 for a will call ticket via BxB+ today for my wife. A shipped ticket would probably be right about that $508 number.

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.

Pedro, I've worn braid extensions for years. For itchy scalp relief: tee tree oil in a spritzer bottle is magical.

Thanks, I was thinking something like this would work. I assume she should spray it on the "exposed" areas of the scalp.

I never have to worry about hair issues on the playa as I have none. That being said I have a question for my wife. First year she ended up with a rats nest (well not that bad, but yeah it was a wreck). Last year she had cornrows braided with extensions and it was so much better. The only thing she ...

It would be the 2nd one. Sorry for the confusing question... I'm asking for someone else. Yes, adding people to the camp should be rather easy. I didn't think someone from the BORG would come, count heads and issue a citation because we're short a few people based on our application - but wanted to...

Still no luck on my end... 12:03 email (12:02 confirmation from Lyte). Requested 2 tickets.

Got an email at 12:04 after registering for STEP and got two $425 tickets and vehicle pass on Friday 5/31.

What email did the STEP email come from? I got my email at 12:03 and haven't heard anything.

In the past I've bought the $990 ticket and then come across a main sale ticket. At that point I actually sell the $990 presale ticket for $750, effectively splitting the cost difference between the two tickets. This is always done with friends who didn't get a ticket through the main sale channel. ...

Clean post-playa exterior glass trick: Wipe all glass and mirrors with a DRY microfiber towel, before using any water or cleaning solution, no baby wipes, no moisture, just a dry microfiber towel. I was amazed, better than washing for initial post playa drive home... no streaks. Dry wiping everythi...

This was the best year I've had for RV prep/cleanup. 90-120 minutes of prep, mostly on playa except for the moving blankets I laid down all over before we left to protect the seating/sleeping areas plus the floor. Spent 60-90 minutes taping on playa with 3M blue painters tape and covering most windo...

Thanks. I’ll double check with Gate.

We are pushing to be there as early as possible and my camp is aware of timing and prepared if we don't get there early on Saturday. As stated, I'm not going to risk myself, my passenger or my transportation because I need to arrive a few hours earlier. The travel aspect of this is safety first, not...

So we are coming down early with WAP's with plans for a Saturday arrival. My intent is to arrive by 2-3pm on Saturday depending on the drive. Is there a cutoff time that we have to be in before they close the access for them? I just want to make sure we don't miss that and end up at Gate only to be ...
