I see I didn't share my experience with all of you fellows ...

I have an issue with the Boards from Diode Dynamics now ...

It seems that it's a Driver problem and need to be changed. I'm now waiting for the warranty replacement parts and see how I can solve this issue.

Good to know, don't put this Drivers inside your lights, I've them in my lights so need to open them again to repair my issue.

Mm, I just came on here to see what the latest is. I desperately want to get my DRLs working but not fully happy with any of the options yet.

Me too. I know it's just cosmetic but it's something that will always bug me if I don't get sorted.

For me the problem is not repaired yet. Sometimes it works well and sometimes the one side don't want to light up and stays dimmed ...

I'm still waiting that DiodeDynamics send me the new drivers. I already have a set of new drivers in my hands but don't want to put them on the car.
They are working on a new more powered driver, that's the one I need. So in the same time I can repair my problem and I can have that my LED's light up a bit more.

I have spare lights now for exchange already modified. So no car downtime. Will not post with details out of respect for sponsorship rules.

Will they give more power to the same LEDs? I hope this will not cause some other issues like frying tribar!

Could it be that it's the car cutting the power, not the LED drivers? Happened to me with too strong parking lights. The car just cut one off. Do you have voltage present on the drivers?

As he said. You have a driver on each sides LED boards, They are plugged to a RGBW controller and at last this controller is plugged to +12v and ground. So if one side has a trouble than it's not the car that cuts the power.

Yea, the new drivers they are working on will provide more power than the one I have now on the car. They will not provide 5 time more power but a bit more ( don't have the right specs for the new drivers).

This will not work with UK rear lights, even the Euro lights do not have the wiring loom compatibility. Only way is the Caniggia method from the Euro forums. I think [MENTION=14319]ianw[/MENTION]hu has the modified ones installed see the link. I think it will be hard to sell these over here unless there is an imported car and the owner wants the sequential brake lights it's possible.

Hey John, do they have your issues fixed?
