vfrgiving Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I found these red LEDs while shopping for LED taillights for the VFR. I wanted to see how long they'd last before providing some feedback but they have about 9,000 miles of use on them now. I'm sure one will take a dump at some point, but there's a year warranty and it's only $18 for the pair. https://www.amazon.com/Alla-Lighting-Strobe-Flashing-Brilliant/dp/B07F9MV3Z8/ On the closure of a brake light switch, that's handlebar or right foot, they do a quick 3 - 4 flash before staying solid brighter. I like the fact that no wiring modification is required for some external flasher module. All the circuitry is contained within the bulb. The one downside is these bulbs are a bit hefty compared to the regular incandescents. It wasn't long before one slipped out and I found it rolling around in the taillight housing. I came up with a small cable tie arrangement that has held them in place since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vfrgiving Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 They're pretty bright. This is the running tail brightness, taken in garage with door open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
