LED tail lights question
Hey --
I'm a newbie when it comes to the LED tails...and I must admit, they are SICK!!!
One question for those who know --> how do you get the lights brighter when
you hit the brakes? Are there extra lines of LEDs that light up? or, does the
voltage change and make the existing ones brighter? if so, how?
Thanks!

You don't change the voltage
If you have 5 rows of LEDs, just wire 2 or 3 for the "dim" part and wire the rest of the rows for the brake part.
I'm planning on doing 5 rows. I'll make the 2nd and 4th rows the "dim" part and make the 1st, 3rd, and 5th rows the brake part
During the day, they'll only see 3 rows when I brake. During night, they'll see 2 rows when I have my headlights on and all 5 of them when I have my headlights on and I'm pressing the brakes. I'm going to see if I can wire it up so that all 5 light up when I brake during the day.
