TapTurn just got a spring refresh...

Two new functions added, that I think you might like. This taken right off the new-look website:

Arrival & Departure Lighting

TapTurn adds convenient pathway lighting that is appreciated at night when walking around the vehicle or in dark places to avoid tripping. While parked, after using the remote to lock or unlock the vehicle all signal bulbs illuminate steadily (not blinking) for a minute to light the way around the vehicle. Bulbs go out automatically after the timed period elapses or by starting the car - whichever happens first.

The exterior illumination timer is easily adjusted from 25 seconds to 25 minutes, or the feature can be turned off completely if not needed. Adjustments are made quickly using just the signal stalk and ignition key to add or subtract time in 12 second increments.

And...

Directional Park Lights

TapTurn lets you light corner markers on one side of the vehicle or the other simply by using the signal stalk while parked. When the vehicle is off, engaging the signal stalk left illuminates the left front and rear signal bulbs steadily (not blinking). Bulbs stay lit until the signal stalk is returned to center position so you can leave the car parked this way. Same story goes for the right side of the vehicle by engaging the signal stalk right while parked.

Directional Park lights are commonly found in European makes and provide a good parking aid for narrow streets where only one side of the car needs its markers lit. 4-way parking lights can still be used when all corners of the vehicle need to be lit - just use your parking light switch as you would normally. 4-way parking lights can be used in combination with Directional Park lights, if you like.


Didn't know what to do about pricing for new features... So I left it alone. These are "free" additions and now just part of any TapTurn you buy, with StrobePack or the vanilla one too. Extra toppings to make the deal taste even sweeter!

Cheers
Scott
