Hi all,
Has anyone tried one of these bulbs ?
I bought one to fit to my C15 with a 12v conversion.
Even though converted, there was not much charging left with everything turned on.
It seems that even though these bulbs are rated between 6v and 24v , they don't like the low end of that range.
I had a long and productive chat with a technical guy and it seems that the internal circuitry needs a decent voltage to keep it running.
When I checked my voltage at the back of the bulb, I had mid 9s low 10s.
I'd been fiddling with the bike so expected it to be down below 12v , but the standard bpf bulb seemed bright enough, .
When running the back of bulb voltage was high 13s as you'd expect and this new led bulb worked fine.
Just in case anyone has the same issue.
Earth's and connections etc were all fine.
