We're going over the wiring the old owner did on the bike, which is very neatly colour coded, but my stepdad is also VERY colour blind, so far it's going a lot like this:

Stepdad: "So this red wire-"

Me: "That one's green but go on."

Him: "So this green wire-"

-

Him: "This one's orange, right?"

Me: "That's the brown one."

-

Him: *Pointedly holding up wire*

Me: "Red."

So at least i'm being somewhat useful.

Evolution and Importance of Side Indicators

Side indicators, or turn signals, are essential for a vehicle's safety and signaling. Though they may seem minor, their development and integration into motorcycles, scooters, and other vehicles have significantly improved road safety. Let's explore their history, key pioneers, and how they have become indispensable auto parts.

A Brief History of Side Indicators

Side indicators originated in the 20th century as the automotive industry evolved. Before them, drivers used hand signals to indicate turns, which was inconvenient and dangerous, especially in poor weather. The first mechanical signals, called "semaphore arms" or "trafficators," appeared in the 1920s, but their manual operation made them unsuitable for motorcycles and scooters.

Pioneers and Innovators in Indicator Development

Several innovators contributed to the modern indicator. Oscar J. Simler patented an early electric turn signal in 1929, laying the groundwork for future signaling systems. In the 1930s, Buick was among the first automakers to adopt electric turn signals, using lights controlled by a lever inside the car. This innovation led to standardized systems, which were later adapted for motorcycles and scooters. Companies like Bosch and Lucas Industries also played a key role in producing reliable electrical components, including indicators.

Evolution of Side Indicators

The use of side indicators for two-wheelers gained traction in the mid-20th century. Initially, they were simple, bulb-lit units designed primarily for visibility. The 1980s and 1990s saw the introduction of halogen indicators, offering improved illumination and durability. LED technology later revolutionized side indicators by providing:

Enhanced Brightness: Greater visibility in adverse conditions.

Energy Efficiency: Lower power consumption, ideal for motorcycles and scooters.

Durability: Longer lifespan, reducing the need for replacements.

Design Flexibility: Slimmer, more integrated designs.

Side Indicators in Modern Two-Wheelers

Today, side indicators are mandatory for road-legal motorcycles and scooters. Manufacturers focus on both functionality and design, offering styles like flush-mounted, bar-end, and integrated versions. The demand for customization has led to a surge in aftermarket options, with brands like Rizoma, Motogadget, and Kellermann providing high-quality, stylish indicators.

The Importance of Side Indicators in Road Safety

Side indicators communicate a rider's intentions to other road users, reducing the risk of accidents. They are especially vital in crowded areas where motorcycles and scooters often navigate tight spaces. Properly functioning indicators ensure that other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians can predict a rider's movements, promoting safer traffic flow.

Conclusion

From semaphore arms to sleek LEDs, side indicators have evolved remarkably. Thanks to early innovators and pioneering companies, they are now an essential part of vehicle safety and design. At Sandhri Associates, we offer a wide range of side indicators, including OEM and aftermarket options, to suit various makes and models.

unihertz Jelly Star をゲット

今回も争奪戦に参加したunihertzの新機種。atomからtitan経由して小型機なので一瞬見送りも考えたけど、atomの頃よりはずっと進化してるだろうってことと、今後もtitan系の物理キーボード付きのスマホの発売の期待をこめて投資。

こちらの1台で何が変わるってこともないのだろうけど、期待しているユーザーがいるってことはわかってほしかったり。

わかりにくいけどレインボーに輝く箱でやってきた。

ケースとフィルムの初めから装着されている大陸仕様。フィルムの貼り付けは当然いまいち。現在使用しているtitan slim��type-cケーブルをつないでデータ移行。アナログじゃね？？

そして似たようなサイズの携行品が増えてしまい混乱する。

わかっていたけどバッテリーが小さいので持ちがいまいち。画面が小さいので広告が入るサイトは不向き。そして使い始めてから2回ほどフリーズすることがあった。

物を美味しく撮れないことでおなじみだったカメラもtitan slimからは進化しており、今回も悪くない。なんなら相当進化している気がしないでもない。

あとはmotogadgetのmo.unit Blueとの接続が終われば本格運用となりそう。

ショベルにmotogadget mo.unit Blueとか9

mo.unit Blue はスマホ連動でキーレスにできるけどマニュアルには「物理キーはちゃんと着けような？」ってあるのと、車検で預けたりする際にスマホも預けるのは非効率なので物理キーを取りつける。

motogadget mo-lockを導入。登録した非接触キーに反応してON-OFFスイッチをしてくれる優れもの。電磁波を用いて通信するらしく、バッテリーカバーの内側に設置を試みたけど、金属板がかなり薄くても反応してくれなかった。

これを見えない個所に設置して、普段はスマホ連動で動作させ、車両を預けるときは非接触キーを渡すことで問題解決することとした。

以上でショベルにmo.unit Blueを組み込む作業は終了。仕事時間を終えた夜作業しかできなかったけど、今回も相当時間かかった。配線をどうするか考える時間も含めるともっと時間かかっている。ショップで組んでもらうと部材費も定価だし、どんだけ取られるか恐ろしくなるな。

この後試走でナンバー灯が今回の作業とは別で断線していたことが発覚したり、スピードセンサーの配線読み間違えで速度表示しなかったり、バッテリーの固定に問題があることが発覚するなどいろいろあったけどリチウム化とmo.unitの導入が終わったのでやりがいのある2週間を過ごせた気がする。
