TIR3's and tint

Post by KuhnElectronics »

Anyone know how good the TIR3's will cut through tint?

Looking at doing 2 in the rear glass of a SUV...

Nick,

Check out these vidios I took of my setup. Both videos showing one or more TIR3 module through fairly standard tint:

1x module:

akardam,

Is that an all Amber Whelen D8 Dominator or TIR3 TAD83 in the back of your truck?

If it is a TAD, I'd like to know what flash pattern you have that thing set on, & whether you have a longer video clip of it, that you can email to me?

TIA.

TIR3s have NO problem punching through tint.. they do much more incredible than those videos appear. As any video, they never do any light justice.
