Do you know if anyone has opened one of these to see what’s inside?

I tried to wire one of my cambus signal lights in parallel with the new taillights to simulate a load resistor but I got constant hyperflash. With just the taillights I have intermittent hyperflash. I’ve never seen anything like it.

The guy seems to be very secretive with where he gets his resisters and parts. Makes sense if he wants to monopolize oh this very specific business..
I've read many conflicting results with using the standard solution of 50W 6ohm resisters in parallel with the new LED lights. In one of this dude's videos, he shows how this solution can cause the resister to get up to 400 deg F after some time of usage whereas his harness only goes up to 150 deg F.


I'm wondering if he uses different resisters, configuration, resistance wattage or some other black magic in his box. The fact that he says it would fix the hyper flash issue on both front and rear lights with one harness leads me to believe he might have some more insider knowledge of the harness's wire diagram.

One tip from iJDMtoy with the simple 50W 6ohm load resister solution is to not use T-taps or quick taps because it may not make a good enough connection to the wires.

I'm not ready to shell out $80/side for a hyper flash solution and would rather make my own plug-n-play solution for less. So far I was able to find what kind of connector is needed. Now just need a good load solution.

I just looked and I payed $80 total for both.

For me he wants $100 to ship to me in Canada. I’m wondering if he just used the 50w 10ohm resistors and packed them with a high heat insulation. Of course I guess it would burn out faster.

Hi, just want to share where and how I mounted my load resistors (civic hatchback). See pictures.
