Skene IQ-275 LED Dimmer disassembly/explanation
Well here we are with another disassembly of something that wasn't meant to be disassembled: the Skene IQ-275 LED dimmer.
We have a Baja Designs LP4 as the headlight on this bike. Since it has no built-in dimmer function, we've been using a Skene IQ-275 to dim the otherwise-blinding light for street use. Unfortunately a couple weeks ago, the dimmer failed, leaving the light at full brightness.

Radar detector install on T7
I have used an Escort 8500 X50 RD (radar detector) for going on 20 years and it's still going strong. I had it installed previously on my FJR as that powerful 145 hp bike has the potential to land one in the pokey. Fast forward to my T7, which until just recently wasn't equipped with said radar detector as 72 hp seemed tamer and not as much a worry for doing stupid speeds. . A recent popo encounter changed that so on the T7 the RD goes. I previously used a H.A.R.D. heads up display system, but they've gone through the roof in cost and requires battery maintenance and it was just one more thing to fiddle with before riding.My current setup is utilizing a LED indicator from Marc PaynesHe's a great guy to deal with and made my audio lead to my spec of 36" instead of the standard 24", without a whimper. His LED visual alert plugs into the audio jack of the RD and does not require any input from the rider to function as I wired the RD to power up with the ignition key. I mounted his Visual Alert on top of the speedo housing with Velcro and ran the wire along the dash curve to the RD.I mounted my 8500 X50 in the inside of the inside of the front RH fairing panel. The existing plastic standoffs made a great spot to run zip ties around the detector to complement the Velcro I added under the RD. I wrapped the RD in plastic wrap to help with keeping moisture out, but will not be training a pressure washer to that area.Hopefully this and the INNOVV K3 Dash cam I just installed will keep me out of trouble or at least ahead of it.-
