This kit adds:
1) Colour changing Powercell and Cyclotron.
2) Selection between 1984 and Afterlife modes. 1984 mode turns one LED only, while Afterlife is a trail.
3) 9-LEDs per each Cyclotron window, making it the best resolution up to date for the trailing effect if you convert it to 2021 mode.
4) Add inner cyclotron box PCB and ring. The ring matches the colours of the external cyclotron. The inner part is only activated when the lid is opened.
5) Keep the Ribbon cable animation when it is removed.
Caveats:
This circuit doesn't detect wand actions. This means:
1) Overheat event won't be detected and the lights will continue as if there was no overheat event.
2) You can only turn this circuit ON/OFF with the Ion arm switch. If you turn the pack ON/OFF with the wand, the sounds won't be synchronised to the LEDs.
3) This circuit won't change the speed of the LEDs depending of the wand shooting.
Use this circuit if you want to improve the lights in your pack and don't mind about the mentioned Caveats in the description, or if you still unsure to which kit to upgrade and want to see how the improved LEDs look like.
LED boards are compatible with the GPStar kits, so you can easily upgrade.
