well monday i will order some luxeon stars to start a homebrew led tail light and turn signal combo (running and ts)
2 questions before i start. anyone change out the turn signals with leds yet? If so how did the turn signal relay handle it. i need to know if i need to get a hold of a newer one, but i dont mind slighly faster blink b/c i plan to have is set to do a fast strobe (3-5 flashes per second when lit).
2nd is how bright is too bright. i dont want any lawsuits for burnt retina's. these units put out 80 lumens a peice (apparently the same as the tail light on stop) and i was looking at 4 for the tail light and set it up as a 3rd break light, and 2 per in the turn signals (one red and one orange) . I have an INOVA t-3 3 watt luxeon flashlight for emergencies, and it is much brighter than my 2 d maglight.
