For once, this did not start with something of mine breaking. It started with Peter - a really nice guy I got in touch with completely by chance ;) - whose motorised “WallWizard” TV wall mount (the kind that swivels the TV left and right with a remote control) had a dead controller board. So I built him an open-source, drop-in replacement for it. The original brain is a sealed, proprietary CLO Systems board (P/N 417-S3-001-00), and when it dies you are basically left with an expensive, motorised paperweight....

I just came back from the maiden voyage (about 2000 km including a bit of off-road, with a BMW R1100 GS) with my new “rackless” (meaning you don’t need a luggage rack, you just throw it over like saddlebags) motorcycle luggage system, which I’ve named TMS.GL Wreck60. The 60 stands for 2×30L that can be carried as sidebags (in the form of drybags). On top you can strap on whatever you want 😉...
