BETA · Pre-order

Your lights should know what your vehicle is doing.

RhinoLink wires into your turn, brake and reverse signals and your switch panel, so your Rhino RGB lights and accessories respond to what the vehicle is doing. The RhinoLED app on your iPhone does the rest.

Why RhinoLink

A Bluetooth controller waits for your phone. RhinoLink listens to your vehicle.

Signals, not just colors

Wire turn, brake and reverse once. Whips can blink with the turn signal, go red under braking and light the ground behind you in reverse, from 21 automotive patterns.

No phone required

Wired triggers, their priorities and your Startup Profile are stored on the board. Flip a switch and it works, whether the phone is in your pocket or at home.

Lights and accessories together

8 outputs each trigger an external relay, so the button that changes your lights can also bring on a light bar, work lights or a beacon.

How it works

Wire it once. Set it up in minutes.

The HUD: buttons for turn signals, brake, reverse, hazard, strobe and more
HUD

Your switch panel, on your phone.

  • Hold or toggle buttons for turn, brake, reverse, hazard and strobe.
  • Any button can also run from a real switch wired to one of the 12 inputs, with no phone needed.

Startup Profile: what each channel does when the controller powers on
Settings

Starts the way you want, every time.

  • A Startup Profile sets what each channel does the moment the vehicle powers on.
  • Rename the controller, up to 31 characters, and name every channel after what is on it.
  • Controller settings are stored on the board, so they are there every time you turn the key.

Questions

Before you order.

Do I need my phone with me?

No. Once it is set up, wired triggers, their priorities and your Startup Profile run on the board itself. The app is for setting it up and for hands-on control: colors, themes, and HUD buttons that have no wire behind them.

Which phones does the app run on?

RhinoLED: iPhone, iOS 15.0 or later, free download.

Where are my settings saved?

On the controller: trigger mappings, your Startup Profile, automotive pattern choices, output settings and the controller's name. On your phone: the HUD layout, favorites, custom themes, My Palette and custom patterns.

When does it ship?

BETA pre-order — first production units are preparing to ship. Features may change before final release.
