As I said,mine works fine now. Maybe you could take 1 led from each turn signal and wire them to the front somehow? That and two switches,front battery-rear battery could solve your issue? I hate to think you spent 70+ for a learning experience.
Well sure that might work.
The front unit is mounted on a TopPeak and it " Waggles" so it always works but my rear is mounted on the book-rack and it is always pounded so it quits right away.
remember when the front and rear units cannot "Talk" to each other they quit working. Just like if they are not started up and syncroinized they also have some styrange mode of blinkking then they shut off.
Cool if they are stolen and the theif is unaware of how they work but suck if I am depending on these as a safety device.
I found the electronics to be over done. Sure wireless is great but with the FCC rules these must accept interference so they can get shut off by RF and what good is that if I am depending on them as a safety device? I could get killed thinking my turn signals are working and not @ 30 MPH in Trafic!
I don't see myself changing the rear mount so making that a "Dumb Display" along with the Front seems good.
Placing the controls for left right in a thumb switch would improve things because it is awkward to reach to the center and hit their buttons not to mention it takes a hand off the controls.
So, I just asked some new friends for help so perhaps I can import the electrionics as a project soon. I understand the basics but it's been 30 years sinch I last etched a CB.
Now what about the Head Light and the Tail Light?
I have a Brake light so I can have running lights so I can power the Head and Tail from a Generator?

I bet adding that generator would finally be useful. The Bicygnals head and tail would run when the engine does.
What do you think?
movement had jiggled loose. When I tried to tighten them, I stripped both bolts. So I took some black shoelace and tied both lights in a horizontal position and they haven't disconnected or anything else. They are mainly for the turn signals but the I use the rear in flash mode and the brake light stops flashing and stays on when you hit the turn signal. I just read this whole thread and why can't you put a switch between the battery and spring in both cases,positioned under the seat,that will control the syncing of the units? I have considered a dynamo,wired to a regulator,wired to a rc battery,to power both units,maybe a rear brake and front headlight if possible.
