;) .. I love you.

I have an AIM beacon and it uses 6 LEDs arranged in a 20 mm circle. It is powered by 8 AA batteries, or a 12V DC adaptor. It also has a low and high power switch.

I would imagine you'd want an LED with the smallest possible lens angle, maybe 15 deg, to get a well focused beam. It also increases the distance it can reach.

Nerd!

You've been on the juice haven't you!!

:lol:

Yes :D

Woohoo! First time I've used my Electronics degree for something useful since I graduated 10 years ago :D

Ummmmm...you don't need one. Every circuit I've raced on has had a transmitter in use on race days.

exactly ....

but Domski wants this for trackdays .. personally thats a **** attitude as trackdays are for fun, not for skimming the last 10th of a second from your lap times.

you have DD Domski, keep your racing there or book some ACU days as your average trackdaypunter doesn't want you out there pushing the limit ...

I didn't realise it was for a trackday - anyway it's next to near impossible to post fast lap times on a trackday due to the traffic so, why bother?

Oh for god's sake ...

How many 'trackdaypunters' do you see running laptimers? Heaps! I've walked around the pits on quite a few track days last year and seen loads of people with them, trying to hide them away.

Yes it's difficult to set a hot lap without disturbing other riders on track but you do get clean laps in the fast group so you do get the opportunity to have a go without impacting others.

I've ridden with Dom on a track day and I can vouch for him being a courteous rider who doesn't go stuffing the bike under people mid-corner etc. Track days help racers learn/refresh the circuit, it doesn't necessarily mean that you push every friggen lap and carve people up. In general it's the bloody hero's who think they are superfast that carve people up, not racers. There's exceptions to every rule ... JUST MY EXPERIENCE!

Just like legends who want 46psi in the rear so they can 'rear-wheel' steer the bike around in the novice group ... ;)
