RESULTS

Our CLUB Light works very nicely.  It detects the beat off of a line-level voltage (through an RCA cable).  The user is given the option of setting the final gain for detecting the beat using a hard-wired potentiometer.  The light appears to have no glitches, and the stepper motor changes the colors randomly and smoothly.  The light is greatly improved over the original, factory light.  It runs at a cooler temperature, uses less power, and utilizes all of the colors in a much more random fashion.  You may watch a short clip using QuickTime here:
