If you are going with LED signals you might want one that is electronic, not thermal?
Yes - I think that WER is quite correct in this.
I'm not an electronics whiz, but as I understand it, electro-mechanical (i.e. thermal) flashers need a certain minimum level of resistance in the turn signal circuit to function properly. I tried that particular flasher on my bike - with
all LED bulbs - but it wouldn't flash because the resistance in the circuit was too low - thus, current draw is not enough to generate the necessary heat to cause sufficient deflection in the little bi-metallic
flasher-clicker thingy (see how tech I am??) to enable the flasher to function properly.
So, I replaced the front signal LEDs with incandescent bulbs and left the LED's in the rear and it now works fine. I can even hear the flasher clicking at lower speeds - which is good, because I often forget to turn the darned thing off, which is actually quite dangerous in heavy traffic.
BTW - the reason I would like to go to all LEDs is that they draw less power (easier on the old XS650 charging system) and they last just about forever.
Anyhow, I would like to swap over to all LEDs signal lights - but I haven't yet figured out the correct flasher to use (suggestions
welcome!!). I already own the bulbs - I just need the right flasher....
