Retrofitted LEDs on tailight of my P150 Classic

Abhijeet, I told you that it would look better with the clear cover from DTSi model... it looks very good.
Just got a thought for your next step - might look very attractive or might just look like junk, but a thought - the two towers that glow when you brake... can they blink? - run up in series?

Changed the red plastic cover to clear lens one from DTSi. Must say it came out beautifully. Yesterday, I was riding my friend's bike with my friend riding my bike - the LEDs set up looked beautiful and distinctive.
OT - I like the power delivery of my P150 better than the P180 UG3! The newer bike has all the power concentrated in the bottom end.

Thats all guys!!!

No idea where consoles of our bike are made.. I think they are made in India only. Its not that complicated. Pricol also makes them. No idea where to get EL panel in India
. But one can order online from the website. Let me know if you do progress in it.

@shadow : Any idea where can we get these panels in INDIA....
I believe the LCD Consoles that we use in our Bikes are all made outside India.... At the back of my LED Console is has SIEMENS logo.....
How bout the LED Consoles in Pulsys...R15...and other bikes.....?

Guys, to change orange colour of LCD to white say in UG3, first note that they use Electroluminescent Panel or EL panel to backlit the display. They come in different colours. In pulsars, apache its orange, yellow, blue, etc. In R15 its white. Its a thin sheet of semiconductor material which glows uniformy and very bright... Even in analog meter console of cars, the same is used. So try if you can get it - http://www.electrolamp.com/elpanel.html

Yes, 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.

@ABHI : Ive planned to do the same kind of Housing as u did for ur pulsar...
One quetion may sound childish - but still im 0 in Electronics...
In the above circuit dig u have connected the -ve end of One LED to the +ve end of another LED is this is the correct thing that can be done.....
So doesn it mean that we can connect the LED's in a serial Fashion - connecting with a single wire......with the resistor....

Yeah LEDs blinkers are possible too... Not much different from the tail light. It is just a matter of packaging the LEDs inside the blinkers.Originally posted by Thunder View PostHei with this same pattern --- is it possible to do LED Blinkers --- i belive we can do it - as ive seen a lot of ZMA's has these mods done...
Can anyone put light on it.......

Yes u will need to upgrade ur alternator and Rectifier unit to that of Avenger's.

Guys, installed the amby headlamp... The alternator does support the 60/55W bulb. But, there seems to be losses from the glass covering the reflector. So, the resultant beam is only slightly more powerful compared to my clear lens P150 original reflector. Any suggestion guys? Also the bulb used was a LISPART bulb (cost around Rs. 70). Will using a Philips bulb help? (My earlier clear lens reflector had a Philips bulb).
Also, the full brighness of the bulb shows from around 2.5K rpm and above and the beam colour is whitish-yellow. Below that, the bulb is slightly yellow in colour and takes time to switch ON. So, do I need to upgrade to avenger alternator?
