Hi All
I’m a fan of LEDs. However I had problems with flickering at first and found the answer was to change the electronic flasher unit for a mechanical one. This did mean that I had to have two incandescent bulbs to pull sufficient current to activate the flasher. I’ve since changed the ignition leads to silicon in order to overcome interference issues with an electronic rev counter and recently replaced the mechanical flasher back to electronic and now use LEDs all round.
EXCEPT….For my 6 volt trailer. In order to pull enough current to close the reed switch which operates the trailer warning buzzer I need incandescent indicator bulbs on the trailer
.
Cheers
Howard
