LED headlights hooked up to an LM-3S.
SWA737:
Thanks Al. I will order the 3 volt ones and add the resistors you said. The are cheap so I’ll order a few of each size as far as the LED physical sizes.
nodcc4me:
You're welcome, Rob. That's exactly what I did.
Tom:
Would does everyone want LEDs? It seems like incandescent are more prototypical, the LEDs I have are really bright. If 12v incandescents are available one does not have to bother with resisters and soldering them and fitting them into the space available.
SWA737:
Well Al, I guess your going to have to hold my hand some more on this LED thing. I have LEDs picked out on the Evan designs website ready to purchase. While searching their site, I cannot find resistors to purchase. I guess I need a location that I can buy them. Not able to find what I’m needing. Where are all you guys getting your resistors for these applications?
Thank again,
Rob
nodcc4me:
They used to carry resistors. I guess they are now trying to move their pre-wired bulbs.
I don’t remember where I bought resistors as it was several years ago. Ebay has many sellers. Decide what size you need and pick a seller with good feedback. When you get them you can refer to the LM-3s instruction diagram which shows how to wire them in. If you need more help, come back here
