I'm putting LED signals on my motorcycle and i'll need a LED flasher. Anyone know where I can find one in town?

Are you sure you don't just need to add some resistors? I did a full LED conversion in my car, including signals, and didn't touch the flasher. :dunno:

Maybe a bike's different, but I could point you in the direction of resistors if that would work.

you can do either, most do the load resistors due to cheap cost, availability, and universal fitment.

Well i measured the resistance of the bulbs I took off and it was like 1.2ohm.

So if I match this will that be sufficient?

basically what you need is this

but you need them for both sides, so you need 2 of em, which you may not have the space for, so the flasher is probably the better way to go in your case.

I have resistors already. I tried 25ohm 25watt which technically by the math shoulda worked.

Don't want to sound retarded but you put it in parallel right, not series?

Yes Parallel
