Aw man you're making me regret buying my 2 whelen dual avenger 2 trio lights. I run them in the rear but im looking for a dash light now and i figured id check out the competition. Lol
@Paul.atherton6 ай бұрын
Whelen makes a great light. That said. The avenger 2 was disappointing to me. I’ve seen both I prefer this as the use of dash lights is to be pretty discrete until on

You shouldn’t want to. You would need to do a sig plug. To a switch box of some sort. No cig plugs have enough switches to use all the features. If you want like 2 features like. Warning and second warning then you could wire that up. But yea not worth it. Just hardwire it

With the hardwired version can you set mode 2 to a cruise mode? I was under the impression I could do that with the cigarette plug model but I cannot it only does the white with the override switch
@Paul.atherton3 жыл бұрын
The override switch when you hit the color mode button on the side gives you the option to use the white override as red steady for California. When you have hardwire you can use mode 2 as a stead burn if you want as wel and still maintain an override for flood

+Paul Atherton it's the sync that sucks. If you view any feniex pattern in slow motion I'll see there's not enough time in between flashes and you can see both modules are on together which gives the affect that it's out of sync.
