Default Machete saddle bag lights problem

Hello fellas,

I posted this in lights/electrical forum, but I don't think there is much traction there. Hoping someone in touring section would be able to give me some insight.

I bought Ciro3D machete type lights from Amazon. They work awesome, I had them all hooked up and working well. However, when I hit my brake, they light up (along with my CD CVO type rear lights) no problem, but when I let go off the brake, they turn off for a second and then come back on to their normal "on" state. Is this how it's supposed to be? I would think that there would not be a delay? My rear lights go from brake>on without going "off". I followed instructions on YouTube, which was pretty much straight forward.

Do I need some "sync" module to make them stop from turning off after I apply brake?
