Tapturn with BuddyClub tails: Yes...

[scottmcphee]

The tests are in.... All of the tap signaling, hazard modes, etc.. of TapTurn work with BuddyClub tail light LED signals.

The StrobePack option for TapTurn, if you take it, also works best for the BuddyClubs when they're not switched to sequential mode.

Strobing BuddyClubs when they are switched to sequential mode is a bit of sensory overload! Strobe pulses work but they cut short the sequential effect, so you only get "half" sequences completed per strobe before the signal light goes dark.

I'd say if you love the sequential effect then don't use the strobe modes of TapTurn... just get TapTurn regular. But if you are switching the BuddyClubs between sequential and normal modes, and you want the flexibility to have strobing hazards and signals ... then get the StrobePack option with TapTurn and use it when you want.

Remember, it's easy to turn TapTurn strobing on/off from the comfort of the driver's seat by programming using the signal stalk, hazard button, and key.

Thanks Z for running the experiments for me!

For example, with the engine off, you flick it into "Left Turn Signal". Most tails w/ TapTurn will have a solid turn signal bulb on on the left (no blinking). For the Buddy Clubs, will they turn on, do the sequential once and stay solid? Or will it turn on, do sequential and continue to sequential (but never flips off completely)? Or does it just remain solid 100%, no sequentail?
