 :)Hi all,long time no post. Kinda run the course for now on the rebel leds,I see they still have a 10 wk leadtime on the 145lm whites. Had to bring shed lamp into house & use on my kitchen table since mom moved into lowincome hsg. She's retired & is actually money ahead since her rent is tied w/her ss income. She's only about 6 blocks away. So I don't work in shed in winter anymore Sad,can't afford to heat it & house,too.  chug-a-lug :chug:So,um,well I got bit by the electric RC bug Grin Bought a honeybee king 2 & I'm in love with it oh yeah But I'd like to add some blinking leds to both sides to indicate battery voltage. A vendor of heli parts sells a unit for 10 bucks(helidirect) that only blinks when battery voltage is dangerously low,although not specified.  chug-a-lug chug-a-lug Aside from checking battery voltage immediately right after the BEC makes my heli drop like a stone,does anybody market a blinking display that may satisfy 11.1v-9.6v range I'm looking for? Blue,yellow,& red should be visible at about 20 feet on a sunny day.  chug-a-lug The unit the vendor sells also has a "beeper" on the chip. Don't really need that. Ya shouldn't take your eyes off of the little beastie for a second,anyhow. Shocked As it is a "new" item,rc forums don't have much on it. Just when you thought you had all the rocks out of your garden. Roll Eyes Anybody else here have a similar problem?(not rocks) Smiley
