I finally bought the parts for this. Super excited to build this!

[@lenditoz71]

I’m new to soldering, when you unsolder the barrel plug do you just go at it from the bottom with the solder until it gets the points break loose?

[@rawbdiggity]

You changed it up a bit, glad you made this vid I am going to finally do mine

[@bailey7067]

Awesome video, gonna make one for my Toyota for some snow wheeling

[@ridered7262]

Looks like I'm late to the gate on these videos but this is awesome, I'm seriously thinking about making some whips for my Rzr now. Thanks for making these videos. 🤟

[@RogerSayers]

Wow... you've changed it a bit. Now I'm wonder what way to go. Gonna have to think on it. When I was watching the other video seeing how you was working the clear shrink wrap over the LED's, I was thinking you should have used a compressor and blew up the shrink wrap like a...... 😆 balloon so it would of slipped over a lot easier. Whenever I rework my 5150 I'll do that. So again 👍 up another great video.....

one of those would be awesome on a recumbent trike

[@joshhodges9844]

good job buddy keep up the good videos

[@jeremyberwanger2924]

Awesome video! So I decided to try it. I received all the products you listed(thanks btw). I wanted to see what the lights looked like lit up and can’t get them to work. I had a broken whip and soldered wires on it and they work. Am I doing something wrong or is it possible I got a bad spool of lights? Thanks in advance.

So I've been building these whips inspired by you man for friends and family! I've found that if you don't wrap them super tight as in holding the strip and winding it so tight they tend to not want to crack as bad!

[@gabefernos2370]

Really enjoyed the whip videos. Got to make one ASAP. Is there an special app to download to control the lights or when you launch the Bluetooth it’s automatic thru the controller.

[@damian-_-robles9241]

Where can I buy the led quick connects ? Nice job btw

[@chriswikeen3743]

Thanks for the help. I ordered the controller and hope it works with my light stick I lost the controller to. Blue tooth is the cats ass, I will do one of those next.

[@sofakinggongshow]

Awesome video! I got all the parts in to build two. I'm very basic when it comes to wiring it would have been nice in the video if on the controller you had a red and black wire not 2 black wires that way we could see which side of the controller is hot and ground. I'm assuming the side of the controller with the 2 connections is hot?

[@GarSeeYaa]

Where do you buy the magnetic mounts?

[@robj723]

Wow, that was a really quick reply...thanks. So, been reading more of the comments and one item that gets my attention is where some people say their silicone covering separates/cracks. And I see how you suggest to avoid this (have everything ready and work fast). Which makes me wonder...why not just use one of the styles, such as the IP30, that aren't considered waterproof and, therefore, don't have any silicone covering. In as much as you are shrink wrapping these, is the silicone covering really necessary?

[@robj723]

The third link down is for 0.25" clear shrink wrap...I can't figure where that comes into play from the video...can you explain? Thanks...and great two videos. Oh, and why are you having to solder the two strips together? Just because you had a section left over from a previous wrap and so as not to waste it?

[@bullionbouncer5080]

I have a couple whip light controllers from from Pro RGB that utilize the same male to female plugs you used in this video, in theory i would like to just use that controller to control the home whips similar to yours, would that work do you think?

[@andersoncountry1]

Any chance your going to make a video like the first one, using the new controller that you use now that wouldn’t be in a trailer plug. I’m wondering how to unsolder the barrel plug and if you solder the quick connect wires back to board

[@DanielASchaeffer]

What's the smallest rod one could realistically wrap an led strip around? My electric trike has quarter inch diameter poles. Would those work?
