Mr. Griffey:
Your auction warns against being "fooled" by flashers that "claim to be electronic, they use relays or moving contacts that can pit and burn". That's more than a little disingenuous. Theoretically, sure, turn signal flashers can burn. So can a tube of Colgate toothpaste. But in the real world, in both cases, they don't. Electronic flashers as described below can be pulled out of high-miles wrecking yard vehicles and virtually always continue to function perfectly for years and years and years.

A quickie websearch shows us this is your own design. Fine, but you ought to be aware that anyone can walk into any auto parts store and buy an electronic flasher that:
-Is much more compact than yours (1.25" dia. x 1.25" tall vs. 2.5" x 2.5" x 1").
-Is compatible with fuseblock mount location (yours is not).
-Plugs directly into the vehicle's flasher socket (yours does not).
-Fits directly into the vehicle's flasher clip (yours does not).
-Needs no extra wire added for 2-prong applications (yours does).
-Has an extra-loud click.
-Is adjustable.

-Doesn't have a "self diagnostic on startup" because this is unnecessary.
Now, despite what it might sound like, I'm not really trying to slam you. It's just that what you've done here is kinda...odd. Maybe you did it as recreational doglick engineering (because you can), and that's cool. I've engaged in plenty of recreational doglick engineering myself. But there are so many other automotive lighting circuits that need designing (or redesigning) more than the turn signal wheel needs reinventing...
