Hello,
Recently found a nice round chrome housing with glass front(as the one on bike was missing). I took out halogen bulb? (i believe?) and installed a 6 high powered LED HI/LOW beam assembly.
The assembly has all the SMD voltage regulators and resistors(on the assembly). It's a chinese one.
Problem I'm having, is I'm guessing, is burning out the Hi powered LEDs one by one.
I'm guessing the mini bike has a magneto generator to generate the 12VDC for headlights. Also have a taillight with 2 LEDs but has been working fine with no problems.
At idle they are a bit dim but reving up or going up in RPMs or speed, the lights get brighter(normal correct?)
I'm wondering if I need to add a current limiting resistor in line? The assembly is made for 12VDC systems...
Any help input appreciated.
