BTW, here is another quick reason I am hesitant to run load equalizers.


"WARNING
Load equalizers generate heat when in use. It is imperative that the signals
not be operated for extended period of time (i.e. four-way flashers).
Extended operation will cause the load equalizer to overheat. Aside from
the resultant loss of turn signal function, overheated equalizers pose a fire
hazard."

What I was referring to was the fast-flashing dash.
That's not normal.
But like you said "to each his own".
If it doesn't bother you, all fine and good.
I just wanted mine to work as intended...
Besides, leaving the fast-flash as is, how will you know when you really DO burn out a bulb?
