Hi all -
I don't post much on here, but have been around for a while. I bought my first lightbar from Luis at Strobes N More some 15 years ago or so. I've ordered other items from time to time. I recently watched the SNM video on the new Triple Threat dual-color LED dash light and ordered one in blue / clear. In the video, Luis says that if the light is hard-wired, one could run both the blue LEDs and clear LEDs at the same time. Long story short, you apparently can't. Or at least I can't. And neither can the tech guys at SNM. I called them during my install, and they were initially very receptive. I spoke to tech and customer service. I also reached out via chat. This was a couple of weeks ago, and I'm still without an answer or explanation. I'd be happy with a swap out the dual-color for a regular one at this point. I'm trying not to be pushy or disrespectful. Just looking for some advice. I'm not happy.

If I understand what you're asking, I assume the flash pattern would be the same (dependent of the type of flasher) but it would be capable of alternating colors (all blue, then all white)

Or, understanding it another way... Once you wire it to an external flasher, you lose the organic flash patterns of the light & gain the patterns of the flasher.

IE: utilizing an ULF44 will give it all Whelen flash patterns now & discard the SNM patterns.
