> I bought a PWM unit the other day to run my taillights. Got LEDs in the housing, but only wanted to run one taillight wire, so I’m running the pwm set to 50% between the battery and the tail light, then I’m going to short around it for brake lights. Will have to put a diode behind the pwm to be safe, I think. I don’t know a ton about circuits, really.

I like that idea. Might have to run a single throw, dual pole SW or Relay to open the controller if that diode doesn’t solve the issue bypassing it might create depending on the controller. Bench test it, you’re SMRT, you’ll figure it out.
