Light bar

Ed and Reed bought the light bar at the Prototype This garage sale in February '09. While it wasn't explicitly stated, it was fairly obvious that the device had been abandoned there by the Navy when they pulled out of Treasure Island in the mid 90s. This was corroborated by the US Navy Property label affixed to it.

Our goal is to get it working for use on Ed's car at 4th of Juplaya and Burning Man. It is available for non-destructive sharing at other times.

We looked it over with Jonathan Moore and Mitch, and were then distracted by other projects.

Nils has since been working on it and has discovered the following:

This thing uses all 12-volt logic, which makes sense since it would've been powered off a 12 volt battery.

It is made by "Jetsonic". Here is the manual: Media:Lightbar.pdf.

The guy that was working on it successfully activated some of the lights and the motor to turn the lights by poking at connections internal to the light bar.
