Default LED Turns & Load Equalizer Questions

Driving down the freeway last weekend, my taillight unexpectedly flew off the back of the bike, hung by its wires, finally gave way and bounced off the ground & hood of another driver's car. Not awesome. Here's a closer look at what happened:



SO... needless to say, I'm in the market for a new taillight. I've already purchased a replacement backing plate for the original pictured above. The Custom Dynamics Genesis II taillight w/ integrated turn signals has really caught my eye: http://www.customdynamics.com/street...taillights.htm

Is anyone currently running this light? If so, did you need a load equalizer for the turns, as they are LED?


General question to the community: Those of you who are running LED turns / taillight with a load equalizer, where are you mounting the load equalizer? Any brand suggestions?

I'm running LEDs for all 4 sigs and the taillight. The load equalizer I use is from Biketronics, is plug and play and easily mounts under the seat of my Dyna. The thing I like about Biketronics is that it's guaranteed for life, not something too common for electronics.

Thanks for the tip Nevil!
