anyone know where i could get some super bright L.E.D lights that will work with wally lights? thanks
You cannot use LED lights on an AC lighting system.
It has to be DC and (if possible) DC to DC converted and balanced for best results.
there has been other bro's find an LED replacement bulb for the wally lights on ebay, and even complete lights with them already in, i just saw some the other day,
YB had converted his before too, and they look aweful bright, but do not throw the beam out far enuf for me to ride at night, at speed, because they lack a reflector behind the bulb, so if all you wanna do is look cool....go for it
otherwise stick to the wally's
/\/\/\ i remember that "resistor" you guys used
but all in all 88, you're pissin in the wind, you do not have enuf loot, or knowledge, to do all that would be needed to convert to the blue H.I.D.'s you're referring to
The stock stator could run a single HID bulb , the problem is the 60 watts it takes to " kick over " the HID , once its burning your retinas , it only uses 20-25 watts . You just need a jolt of enough juice to get the bulb hot enough to activate the gases inside . You could use a battery on the blaster to kick it over and the stator could run it , you'd just have to keep the battery charged from time to time to make sure it has juice when you need it . OR , and this is MY idea , is to use a Capacitor ( stores energy ) and is used to kick on the HID's , and also act as a Balancer for the electrical system . so your lights will stay bright even at idle . I've been thinking about this idea for awhile , I'm actually making a Blaster Wiring Harness for it that eliminates all the tors crap and excess wiring thats left over when you take the Tors off . It will also have a couple of extra leads for strobes and Accent Lights ( Kinda useless but when you see a dunefest lightshow , its pretty sweet lookin )
AC to DC converter with a balance system like the transformer in the base of a CFL? I assumed that's the way they got LED's to work on house current.
A led is fundamentally an electrical one-way switch. It illuminates when voltage is passing the correct way through it's voltage bridge.
I mean I guess LED's would work on AC power but they would only illuminate half the time and with half the intensity. The super HO ones are right on the haggard edge as far as heat and voltage are concerned and would be rather fragile to run in a system as poorly controlled as the blaster electrical system.

there are led lights for your house, ac voltage
