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

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.

Lovely design! Very clean install - looks like a factory fitted item. Congrats!Originally posted by nidclt View PostHi friends, I too made a small modification for tail lamp of my Dazzler as I've to save power for the installed HID.
About the HID, does Dazzler h/l run on DC?
And what resistor values have you used for full and half brightness?Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

Thanks Abhi, You were my inspirationOriginally posted by abhijeet080808 View PostLovely design! Very clean install - looks like a factory fitted item. Congrats!

No, Dazzler got AC lighting. I've changed the stock switch to DC(no rewinding and no RR swap). Just changed the Connection of the stock switch to DC which made my whole bike DC(including tail lights). I've not any faced battery draining issues yet, but I don't want to take a risk, so converted the tail lights to LED.
About the resistors. I've used only one 220ohm resistor. Tail light line passes through resistor and break light line goes straight to the array of four LED in series. There are two such arrays. The missing LED is behind the PCB, it will illuminate the stock reflector

First of all, I'm novice to electronics
Originally posted by abhijeet080808 View PostYes, LEDs can be and are generally connected serially as shown in the diagram. The number of LEDs you connect serially and the supply voltage determine the value of the resistor used.

I made a LED light for my pulsar 150 UG2 like this
I used 0.5mm transparent LEDs emitting red light
Resistor = 100 ohms
48 LEDS to glow when applied brake
24 LEDs for parking light
Diode and capacitor is the same as you suggested
Setup works ok, but not satisfied with the glow of those 48 LEDs when applied brake.
Can you please reply to these queries
1) Is the number of LEDs too much?
2) How much watts will the above setup take, parking and brake?
3) What is the forward voltage of the above said LED?
4) Will this setup consume more watts than a stock parking bulb?
5) What changes should I make to the above setup?

Can you please reply to these queries
1) Is the number of LEDs too much?
Yes, use 4 LEDs per 'line'. Use more such 'lines' to get it total 48 LEDs. Use 300 Ohms per line.
2) How much watts will the above setup take, parking and brake?
Around 1W
3) What is the forward voltage of the above said LED?
Approx 2V
4) Will this setup consume more watts than a stock parking bulb?
No
5) What changes should I make to the above setup?
As answered above.Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

Nice work bro. I'm an electronics student myself and i want to do something like this in my Pulsar 150 Dtsi. Can you explain how you connected the circuit to the supply?More CC or Torque or Bhp doesn't decide who wins. Its the soul of the biker. Splendour and Pulsar are the same as long as the bikers share the same passion.

Use 200/220 Ohm resistor with 5 LEDs.Originally posted by Ramborider View PostHii abhijit,have buy that middle one but emiting red light so i have to connect 30 led,how much voltage it requred ??i mean have to conect with set of 5 then how much resistance requred?? [ATTACH]39904[/ATTACH]

is there any Led used un headlight unit??
when i saw brighness of everedy 3w led torche i was shoked!!white light and piercing beam that can traveld 2.5km!!! its on that box but when i was saw this in night,bloody light focus traveld as higher than 400-500m and even brighter!!!
why dont used such high tech product for automobile!!!which are so much efficient!!! even i was also start thinking that how to fix in my bike
