Led turn signals
Does anyone have any advise on load equalizers? I put Kuryakyn led replacement bulbs in and they blink fast after blinking about 4 times normal. I know they have a low resistance and that is why they blink fast but I didn't know if the load equalizer is a plug and play or if you have to splice into the factory harness.

13 SG. I got the load eq adapter that goes under the left side cover. I was looking at the Kuryakyn load eq and I think it goes under the seat but not sure. I didn't order it yet. I don't want to splice into the factory harness. I would like a plug and play set up but not sure if the Kuryakyn setup is

I just put LEDs on my RKC the other day and I ended up going with the Badlands Illuminator. I chose this one because it has a run/brake/turn module built in along with the load equalizer. Was about 110 bucks and completely plug and play. Simply disconnect the rear harness connector under the seat, put the male end of the controller/equalizer in the female end on the stock harness, put the female end of the controller/equalizer in the male end of the harness, zip-tie the device somewhere under the seat and done.
Have a few friends that run LED and from what they all say and all the reviews I have read, you can't go wrong with either Badlands or Biketronics for load equalizers. I just don't have any personal experience with Biketronics.

I know Custom Dynamics makes a plug-n-play loadEQ. I have their kits on both of mine, LED's all around.

Is there any real danger or downside to letting them blink fast? I ordered the kit and first tried 'em without the equalizer - they were fast & I just planned on leaving them that way. Then one day after working on the front ones (not led), the blinking went back to normal on all of 'em. Been that way ever since.
Anyway, back to the original question - is it really that big of a deal if the blink fast?
