Re: Magnetic blinkers: any tips?
The answer to your second question is maybe, depending on what they are. For a few years I used HF magnetic trailer lights in order to have tail lights, not blinkers. I used welding rod hooks and rubber bungees to keep them from bouncing off the fenders. The last time I used them the rough road shook one of them to pieces. I'm currently in the midst of making some new tail lights. I'll post pictures when I get them done.
These were not a success. Too delicate to survive on country roads.
The inevitable often happens.
