If yall are talkibg about those units that change the lights to green when you press a button then no they wont work in TX.Tx uses a doesnt use that style setup and there is no transmitter in the red light control unit. But if yall are referring to the magnets you place on the bottom of the bike so that itll register that there is a vehicle then Id like to know myslef. Getting tired of running the damn lights.

Alot of the lights here in plano have a little sensor the emergency vehicles flash a strobe at...I realized my vatozone strobes can set these off, but I dont think its a very legal idea...

fuck the transmitter...$10 strobes at vatozone!!

The ones I have seen are a pad about 12x12 you place on the ground while at the light.Can't remeber the name of the company thought. :o

i've found that if i flash my brights about 15 times very quickly, it'll set off most of them that DON'T have weight pads.

When i took the MSF course the teacher said, when u pull up to a street light, there is a cut out box in the road, that is the sensor and it senses the metal on your car. only on some street light though. They said to pull up to the Front Right Corner of the box for it to work. Hasnt worked for me yet.

It's not weight sensitive, it senses the mass of steel above it. I always stop directly over one of the lines (usually on the left side) and it doesn't seem to matter where. Sometimes I've had to put my kickstand down on the actual line for it to pick up. Some people say the magnets work, others say no difference. They're not expensive in any case.
