A Special Note about Email accounts!
DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

View attachment 38156 my gear position selector and neutral lights.

I bought different resistors to vary the brightness - and the different colors need different resistors to make the same them the same brightness - I first thought same resistor means same brightness. - nope and I still want to put a dimmer dial or switch for night and day -- each led gets it's own resistor, I use a negative switched signal.

you are definitely on the right track -- my notes got tossed but I fumbled it together enough to know what gear I'm in. 1st blue -- 3rd is red for burnout gear, the whole purpose was I hate hitting 5th gear twice. green is neutral.

Sweet! Glad to know I'm not the only who thought it was a cool idea.

I just ordered a couple more pots to experiment with. I'll let you know what I find!
