headlight eyelids =D
i baked them, and want to install led eyelids, but one of my friends put the flexible ones http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips and within a week, 3 burned out on one side, and 2 burned out on the other side....so i guess those are out of the question for the eyelids....any ideas guys?

 

if the oznium strips didnt work then idk what to tell you. Oznium's quality > world.

 

ye i do nt know why, they just burnt out a few of them no idea why

 

build them. thas the only way to make sure they last.. flexible led strips sorta suck in general... i would do 100ma white superflux's.. knock yer socks off bright.. but that is me.. could also try www.superbrightleds.com

 

ordered from superbrightleds.com flexible ones too also burn out quick idk why....and how the hell would i build led eyelids? lol please let me know because thats what i want....super phuckin bright lol

 

well.. in the future, i would use a regulator for pre-built led items. even though they say for auto use, they arent realy most of the time.. you can use a 12V regulator so they only get 12V.. never above that... that will ultimately keep them alive for almost ever... or, you can use 2 1N4001 diodes in series to knock the voltage down about 1.4V which dosent seem like much, but you take the average TC alternator voltage of 13.8V (according to my stinger volt meter) that would knock it down to 12.2V.. you'll notice it will be dimmer, but you wont have burnt out led's either..

all led questions can be answered in the sticky here.. or at www.hidplanet.com/forums/led

 

i've bought from superbrightled.com and my license plate lights went out in a month
