Now Randy,
Where do you get a "LED calibrated flasher" and which LED did you use? And
where did you get them?

I've install LED's in both stop and rear turn signal sockets and they
flash very bright and red. Only needed to install a LED calibrated flasher
unit for the turn signals to work properly.
Very pleased and have a bit more confidence that I'm better seen from the
rear approach.

The first one looks interesting. It has a current drain of 7 Watts, which
should kick the blinker switch to work. The second is only one watt. One
would have to use a resistor to drain enough power to kick the blinker.
That's why I wanted to avoid LEDs. Further, the color of LEDs is skewed to
blue and you'd not get enough power through to light up the red plastic
lens (filter).
Comments?

Subject: [Tigers] rear light bulbs
Hello,
I came upon some brighter stop/tail bulbs called 1157 HP on Ebay. Still
incandescent but quite bright.
So, I thought, that's the stop tail, what about the 1156 flasher lamps?
I
looked and looked and there doesn't seem to be any labeled 1156 HP.
I really don't want to use LED's or halogen. Does anybody know of a
plug-in upgrade for both of the rear bulbs that I can get at the local
AutoZone
or NAPA? Part numbers?
Thanks in advance,
Jim Armstrong
