CYBERFEST26 Co-Host CyberWattage Spotted at X Takeover, Featured by Sawyer Merritt
CYBERFEST26 co-host Alex Kratzer, known as CyberWattage, was spotted at X Takeover in Austin—and his illuminated Cybertruck landed in Sawyer Merritt’s feed with a one-word reaction: “‘Murica”.
The Cybertruck Festival co-host takes the energy to Texas
Before helping host Florida’s three-day Cybertruck Festival this November, Alex joined the Tesla community at X Takeover, held October 9–10 at Giga Texas in Austin. For CYBERFEST26, seeing our co-host among the trucks and creators in Texas was a reminder that this community stretches well beyond state lines.
The standout moment came after dark: an illuminated Cybertruck covered in red, white and blue lights. Sawyer Merritt shared a video of the truck on X on October 10, pairing the clip with a short caption: “‘Murica 🇺🇸”. The lights did the rest of the talking.
14,000 LEDs, individually laid by hand
CyberWattage’s truck is built to be seen: 14,000 separate LEDs, each individually laid out by hand. That painstaking work turns the Cybertruck into a moving canvas of light—and makes it a fitting centerpiece for CYBERFEST26’s biggest moments.

Next stop: CYBERFEST26
Alex is co-hosting CYBERFEST26 alongside Jay Blount of CYBRBEATZ. The same creativity and community spirit on display at X Takeover are at the heart of the weekend they’re building in Florida.
His illuminated truck will be a center feature at Friday night’s CYBERFEST kickoff party and meet-and-greet at Palmetto Marriott. It’s a chance to meet Alex, see the hand-laid LED build up close and start the weekend with the co-host at the heart of the action.
For Sunday’s grand finale, CyberWattage’s truck will take center stage in the raceway at Showtime Speedway, creating a final pulse as more than 100 Cybertrucks sync up to close out the night. One centerpiece. A track full of Cybertrucks. A shared final beat to end the CYBERFEST26 weekend.
Join Alex and the Cybertruck crew November 13–15, 2026: Friday’s kickoff at Palmetto Marriott, Saturday’s Fort De Soto beach meetup and evening Masquerade Gala, and Sunday’s racing and Cybertruck light-show grand finale at Showtime Speedway. Three days of custom trucks, light shows and familiar faces—all coming together for CYBERFEST26.
