I’d love the brighter ones... would not look forward to resoldering those tiny wires again. Not hard... but old eyes.
Sure thing. Probably be a week or two.

It's a thru hole. There is no routing to speak of. I haven't tried to mount them on the bike yet. Maybe CLT can shoot one of his install? If not, the weather is finally breaking here so I should be able to start working again soon.

Ok, through hole...Then how do these dimensions compare?

The 1W is .81", effectively flush at the back side.

The 3W is even shorter at .61"

If you need them, there are dimensioned drawings on the page at Oznium.

Great...those pics "said" it all...and the 3W would "up in the Hole" ~.2"

Thx

Understand that. Found with greater age numbers, it is harder to stay heavily focused on anything, even as much as I've loved motorcycles for over 50 years now. Have gone from seven to five to now three in the garage, but always at least one Harley, and preferably a Dyna. Watching what others are doing keeps me involved with mine. Love it. tp

Just for clarification...It's really not Motorcycle "Burnout", it's Forum "Burnout"

I like these different LED Run, Run/Turn set-ups.

The LED/lever integration or this lower mount style.





Chris, I saw that you were messing with constructing your own...Cool stuff...what happened to that? You moved on to the Integrated LED/Lever.

Thinking out loud, I'm wondering about the wire movement during many many operations of the levers...hmm, guess i have to see in person

Yeah, I was working on a set very similar to the ones Rdub has. I abandoned that project when the Felt Fabs were brought to my attention. Mine were brighter and more visible in traffic but nowhere near as clean looking. I'm hopeful that the 3W diodes will help with visibility. They're still just a pin-***** of light but hopefully the brightness compensates somewhat.

I'm vaguely concerned about the longevity of the wires too. 3he 3W diodes have marine grade cable instead of zip cord so they should be better yet. Regardless, the replacement diodes are only around $10 (or less for 1W) and easily replaced so I'm not sweating it. I'll try to leave a generous strain relief when I route them.
