Hi Gang, I have searched but can't find it in the archive. Someone mentioned the 12v 3w lamp that is the alternator warning lamp being changed to an LED and that you had to add a resistor, I think, t

I am assuming that your LED's come in a housing, quite probably with leads attached and have a voltage marking. In which case they can be used as a substitute for the lamp straight away. Led's by the

Hi, Troy - LEDology simple for autos and planes, as you can assume the extra volts when the alternator is working equals the forward voltage of the LED. Divide 12 volts, not 13.75V, by .020 (typical

Hi Europaphiles I plan to use red, green and white LEDs under molded plastic lenses for position lights. There of course are lots of advantages, low power consumption, long lasting, bright, etc. I ju

Depends what alternator you have. In an automotive type alternator the "charge" lamp doubles as a resistor to enable excitation current to be supplied to the field windings prior to the alternator ru

Inoperative, there's infinite resistance to ground; operative it has to go high to bus voltage so the lamp won't light. But it does measure one semiconductor junction's worth to ground on a diode che

The "idiot" light tells you (when it is on) that the alternator output voltage is lower than the bus/battery voltage. And nothing else. When the light is out, the battery is not necessarily charging

I don't think a volt meter can tell you anything about the battery. 1) A cell goes open circuit after starting the engine (it does happen) or one of the leads falls off the battery. Your volt meter

Hi, Nigel - As I worded, that does sound like a goofy arrangement for the door warning. I meant to convey my plan of using an aural warning for the circuit. The necessity of reading throttle position
