    O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 Happy New Year there buddy! It’s always good to get that salt & grime off the rig. Adding a little extra bling to light up the night is always good, especially when they send them for free!🤩 I’m about ready to buy some more lights myself for when I get my old REO running again. The last lights I got was when you added your 1 inch marker lights on the side of the sleeper. I bought some for my trailer. I didn’t get them installed before winter though. Looking forward to it though. Those breather lights look cool. Keep us posted on the bumper. Blessings to you & your family my friend. Keep safe! ✌️❄️🥰

    Awesome vid Ezra, and the wires are short for many applications but most every 379 and all 389s come from the factory with the pigtail to hook up air cleaner lights. I figured that is the manufacturers thinking, even Trucklite provides minimal wire, so it's not really a Partsam issue. Happy NEW YEAR

    Hey Ezra,Happy New Year to you my friend.
    Another great episode, thanks for that.
    I’m sure PartsAM would appreciate your review of their lights and the positive feedback on how they could further improve their product.
    I was a bit concerned with the way you have the wires exiting the air cleaner hat. With time the sharp metal edges of the grille may rub through the insulation on the wires, leading to a short circuit. May I suggest putting a rubber grommet around the wires to lessen this happening.
    Keep up the great work, we’re enjoying following your journey with Old Red.

      It’s even worse than that. The current is double, so the voltage drop is double. But the initial voltage is half, so as a percentage it’s four times!
      (Eg: 1.2v drop at 24v, 5%. Double the current, 2.4v drop. But the input voltage was 12v so it’s 20%! Oof. I’m upgrading my RV’s system to 48v for everything other than the engine)

    Nice! Pretty her up a little bit. One suggestion I might add; if you want to 'de-salt' that truck, you would do yourself a big favor using some stuff called 'Salt-Away'. I've been around salt water boats for most of my life (I'm 65 now), and this is one of those products that stands out and works wonders. Skeptical as I am, I had to do my own testing. First, coming back from a fishing trip, I hand washed the boat on the trailer with soap and water and brush. Rinsed it all off good, let it sit for 24 hours, and did my test for salt residue. I licked my finger and went right down the side of the hull and tasted it. Damn, I could still taste salt. Unbelievable! Thought I did a super-duper good job. Then, next test, the next time I came back from fishing, I did the same thing. Only this time I took the Salt-Away and sprayed/rinsed it down good. That's all I did was rinse it down after washing. Let that sit for 24 hours and did my test again. Viola! No salt taste what-so-ever. The real test is time. After several years of the salt water environment, the boat still looks like new. None of the normal corrosion. Heck, it even looks like I waxed it! Leaves a nice shiny appearance. Flush my engines with it and everything. How easy could it be....spray it on and walk off.
