On behalf of N.J.B.A  we would like to thank Robert Mills of I.M.P.for the great job on the new tree with the upgraded LED's we had a high boat count last week end at Lake Ming with lot's of purse money and we got great reports from all racers saying they are best lights they have ever raced with.They last 3 days without the need to charge with the solar panels we added and we had lots of o lights and two perfect lights.The way there built to pivot in each lane you can see both lanes or slide over and make the other lane disappear.THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT.ALSO THANK YOU JOHN WHITE FOR YOUR FEED BACK AND HELP ALSO.

Robert, here is a picture of them from half track.  I also went down past the shut down area and saw without my camera that the lights are still very easy to see from a half mile away.  What a difference in the new system.  The boaters say it's the best lights in the country.........First picture is from half track, and second pic is from past the shut down area....

Awesome job Mills! No wonder why y'all stay busy putting out that kind of quality. Go figure, that's what you call a side job. http://www.impinc.net/index.html Do you have any pic's of the build or detail shots?

BTW, I think you should take the boat there to test the tree out.

Duane funny you should ask I have a starting clock ready to paint and just needs wiring. Also I have a scoreboard using the same LED's etc except it is made in 2 piceces to make transportation a lot easier packs up on a 96 wide x 96 long trailer or you can transport all 3 pieces on a 14 foot long trailer .

Also we have to thank Craig Franklin for designing and programing one of the best and most state of the art timing systems out there to date.
