I understood 31% of the words in Bill's post.  Isn't The MOSFETS a Moroccan street gang?

One component is a wireless brake/turn/tail/backup light using an ESP32.  The turn signals are sequential. Seeing sequential turn signals in a little Lucas taillight would freak people out. If you weren’t going to do all the wacky wireless stuff it would be easy to combine features with an Arduino and a few MOSFETS, or better yet a mosfet board that includes opto couplers. The code is pretty simple, though my current version is written for using MQQT via wireless—for any geeks out there.
