Title: LED's
Post by: Jimbob on March 06, 2012, 05:21:36 PM
Hey guys there was a post a little while ago about setting up some lights on a bike that some people have done not sure if they are cathodes or not but I'm wondering how hard this is to do and where you can get the lights from? Pic attached to make it clear

There is a whole bunch of threads for this. Should be on page two for the latest one.

It's not very hard at all.  I know almost nothing about wiring, and I was able to do it.  I went on oznium.com and bought a bunch of their LED modules, a roll of wire, a junction box, and a switch.  Ran my LED wires to the junction box, wired the switch on the negative wire (I think) between the battery and the junction box.  Run the junction box wires to the battery, and presto:

I have since added more modules to my setup, but you get the idea.

Isn't only blue or red (or both) illegal?

blue and red definately.

i asked the rta about a valve cap led and was told all are illegal.

i guess underbody lighting is different to an exposed LED
