Default Lithium Battery & Front LED Turn/Run issue
I'm encountering a strange issue with my front CD LED Run/Turn lights since installing an EarthX Lithium battery.

I'm running your GEN-200-AW-1157™ Amber/White Dynamic Ringz™ Front 1157 Bullet Style LED Inserts on my 2012 Softail and all worked fine until I changed my battery over to a Lithium battery. Now the running lights (white) seem to be sporadic, though the turn signals work fine. No issues at all in the rear lights. Also if I turn on my high-beams all is fine. Something leads me to believe it’s a voltage issue. Any thoughts?

LEDs are notoriously sensitive to voltage issues, so I agree with you. Sounds like the lithium battery is not providing the right voltage.
