Any word on if Bruce solved the strobing issue yet? Mine is still in a box sitting under my desk being used as a foot rest for the last 5 months or so. haha

I'll take them off your hands if you would prefer to have my comfy Dell cardboard ottoman in exchange!

The cables are still available and I've been steadily sending them out to all those who have asked for one. The strobing issue has not yet been resolved yet but as it seems to not bother a few people so I've been sending the kits to them. If I have not replied to your PM then I'm extremely sorry. I've been quite busy at work these days so effort spend on this is lower than expected.
The strobing issue should be resolved soon. But then that will mean me having to go back to the drawing board and do some more RND. Also when that happens there is probably no way that I will solder all this by hand because it will take too long and the cost of the cable will probably be too much for people.

The price for the new cable (no more strobing) will go up ?? By how much ? I prefer to have the cable without any strobing issue.
Thanks,

Would be interested to see some feedback here from the people who have now received their lights. Is all OK?
I have a few sets ready but ones that suffer from the strobing issue. If anyone is interested in them please PM me with your email address.

I am sure there will be long list of buyers once the strobing is fixed.
3 things needed
1) no error code
2) true lci look
3) no strobing
I know 1 & 2 have been accomplished, once strobing has been fixed, let the sales begin.
Bruce you have done a wonderful job with all of you work, keep it up. It is much appreciated.
