Exclamation

i am writing in connection to where the thread stArted .i got few dozon leds which was quite expensive big(8 mm or more i guess),can handle 3 volt alone!!so i attached 4 of them in serise on a veroboard and did a circuit of 4 rows of leds total 24 leds.and it can with stand 12 volt directly,no prob.i started the bike revved it,no prob...also blazingly bright whithout any focal point.but must say after putting inside the pulsars back light just like master abhi did ,i realized the brightness is low in compared to stock 5/21 bulb.

now arent you guys are worried that there can be a visibility issue at night when riding through highways.......i feel it tremenduslyyy.....
i mean its even low then a 5/10 bulb i used,,,
i am not at all against the mod,but i am in fear that trukies or cars wont be able to see my ttail lamp and .................................................. .

^^^ I would say mine is good enough during night but does not grab attention during daytime. So it is slightly lower. Solution is to go for brighter and more expensive LEDs. They can outshine normal bulbs!

Man, u've connected 4 LEDs in series without resistors? It'll blow off within no time as the LED requires only 30ma for each one and the current from our batt is very very higher, so a resistor is a must. U've tackled the voltage now by making it in series and so is the case with the currrent too. There are few sites for LED resistor calculations.

Current limiting Resistor calculator for leds
LED center
LED Calculator - Current limiting resistor calculator for LED arrays
LED Resistor Calculator

Or even a manual calculator formula for offline time
LED Resistor Calculator

Goodluck

Guys,
Today I found one CBZ extreme tail lamp was broken and able to see the inside board with LEDs. I guess it will be fit into the RX100 tail lamp based on the size am telling.
So is that extreme tail lamp works on A/c wiring then is it possible to fit it on my RX100 tail lamp by drilling the board and fitting into that two screws.

Gurus please your sugestions....

Those runs on DC I guess. And you would need a bridge rectifier to convert ur AC to DC. And if you can fit the LED board, it should not be a problem.

Yah I have the Bridge rectifier ...Let me try to get this tail lamp from HH spares and try that. Any guess how much will it cost? Also for soldering rod?

^^ No idea! Soldering rod will be about 100 bucks.

Hi friends, I too made a small modification for tail lamp of my Dazzler as I've to save power for the installed HID.

Check out the pics and video


The high power LED (Rs.8/- for one)


PCB and bulb holder


Before putting the red shade


Tail light


Brake light



Final result

That is innovative nidclt. Not only looks good but has a purpose to save power for HID. Good thinking and well executed. Your efforts are commendable.
