Slot.It Lighting Kit

Review by Sean Fothersgill

The kit consists of two separate pieces: the base circuit and the top circuit. The two halves are connected through a microconnector. Please see pictures below.

This way, the body and the chassis can easily be separated without desoldering or removing the kit. Besides, the weight on the body side is kept to an absolute minimum (1.6g). The shape of the base circuit fits perfectly into the chassis of any Slot.it car, or into the HRS chassis as well.

It is sold presoldered, with cables cut to length, and with heat shrinking sleeves. It does not require any soldering from the user.

It also has two more innovations:

1 - Automatic lights shutoff after 15sec with no power: not only this adds realism to the effect, but since the capacitor is never fully discharged, the lights are immediately ready for use after the frist initial charge - even after a few days!

2 - Timed braking effect: like in a real racing car, the brake lights are brighter only for a limited time. So, the braking lights will only be turned on for at most 3sec - or for less if the braking is shorter.

Power supply: max 20Vdc
Weight: 4.6g (3g chassis side, 1.6g body side)
