After 2 years of research, development, community feedback, and end-user enhancement, we're proud to offer the open-source sequential shift light.  This DIY (unassembled) kit comes with everything you need to get started - ready to build and install! Featuring a comprehensive menu system to customize your shift-light, rpm zone colors, sensing methods, and much more! This unit ships with the latest Shift Light software pre-loaded and bench-tested. 

Simply connect the RPM Input wire to a 0-12V Square wave (RPM signal) from your vehicles ECU or aftermarket ignition system. Requires a switched +12V power supply.  In some instances you can tap your stock tachometer RPM signal or ignition coil. Each application will be different, so do your research to find out which approach is best for you. 

Note:  This kit comes with 16 of the WS2812B LED's in a single strip. If you need less, simply cut the strip on the dotted lines. If you need more, visit our store for additional WS2812B leds, add to your shopping cart and we'll ship the total number in one, continuous length. 

This unassembled DIY kit comes with
+ ATMega328 NANO board
+ Custom Chippernut Shift Light PCB

+ Rotary Encoder w/ Aluminum Knob
+ 5V 1.5A Buck Converter
+ 16 WS2812B LEDs

A note on LEDs:  The WS2812b LEDs draw approximately 60mA per LED at full-brightness white. Each color (RGB) draws 20mA per LED. This means the maximum recommended number of LEDs is 25 if you plan to display 100% white.  If you know that your application will not require 100% white, either because you choose a different color or reduce the brightness, feel free to order more. Keep in mind, it's common for applications in direct-sunlight (ex: motorcycles) to prefer 100% white during the shift-flasher, as it outputs the most light and is easier to see. ​
