Hammerhead Karoo extension that allows configuring radar alerts  
and controlling the radar light.

##
**I recommend using the light control extension instead of the embedded kxradar light control.

**Ligt**
Experimental feature (Special thanks to **derstrassi**)  
Light control turns the light on when a vehicle is detected  
and off when the road is clear, saving battery.  
Only ONE light is supported.  
Tested with Garmin Varia 516 (this radar has only one mode).  
**Please disable automatic light control in the sensor settings and set the default light mode to Off.**
