Question Load Equalizer help...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/231088553620...84.m1438.l2649
Hello forum, has anyone or know of someone who used this part for their fast blinking turn signals? Thought this would be easier than splicing into the signal wires with seperate load equalizers. Thanks in advance for any replies...

Several companies make plug-in equalizers.

I've never heard of this seller, but there are many I have heard of with good reputations.

Biketronics, custom dynamics, badlands…. all seem to have a good reputation and loyal following…

That looks awfully large for something that's only supposed to mimic the resistance of a turn signal lamp.
The Custom Dynamics "can-bus adapter" costs less than $5 and it's just a heat-shrinked resistor with a couple of wire leads and posi-taps, and I only needed one...

Looks like they taped 2 resistors together and wired them with the connectors. For $10 more I would get the all in one from kuryakyn.

I have the badlands RTB/load equalizer. Its a little more but a nice unit. The RTB has made a huge difference in visibility to anyone behind me.
