LED load Resistors
« on: December 29, 2010, 01:36:10 AM »
Im converting all of the lights in my car to LEDs, and it has been brought to my attention that load resistors are needed for the turn signals to keep them from hyper blinking. What watt and ohms resistor should I get 50W 6 ohms or 25W 10 omhs?

Your best bet is to get an electronic flasher unit instead of using load resistors.

What's wrong with hyper blinking? More of an attention getter I would think. Only took me a day or two to get used to the different blink rate.
