Third Brake Light PULSAR Gen2 with SmartPulse
These units will flash your third center brake light about after you
apply your brakes and then brake light will remain on without flashing
as long as your brake lights are on.
Using surface mount technology, this little unit was designed to be as small as we could get it for our MINI's and it fits nicely into the third brake light cavity.
Just like our Gen1, this is silent during operation. No clicking!
This second generation has been designed to
handle all brake light fixtures. It can be used on either LED lights
or incandescent bulb lights. It is still very small and can still easily
fit into the MINI.
The second generation allows you to select Long or
Short pulse duration during installation by moving the jumper by the S and L. The Short setting pulses the light about 6 times while the Long pulses it about 10 times.
After getting many requests from owners who live in high stop and go traffic areas like Los Angeles, we developed the second generation PULSAR with SmartPulse technology. When in stop and go traffic, SmartPulse will stop the third brake light from pulsating. When you hold your brake pedal down for more than 12 seconds and then reapply your brake within 9 seconds, this unit will not pulse the third brake light. It will come on solid. When you reapply your brakes after 12 seconds, the unit will pulse your third brake light again.
If you do not wish to have the SmartPulse enabled, simply remove the jumper at J4 and the unit will behave like a gen1 PULSAR.
Installation is very simple. Unscrew your third light, connect to the wiring and reinstall the light.
