#1157 Plasma LED RED bulbs for sale

Post by bertvorgon »

After many, many years of trying to get a better bulb in our rear tail lights, the brake and running light #1157, I have finally found one that more than fits the bill.

I have imported in a bunch of them, McShagger & Funwithmonkeys will attest to them.

I also put a set into my vintage Boler trailer, what an amazing difference.

These bulbs light up as RED and in our aged rear taillights, make an incredible increase in brightness, and being PLASMA LED, light up instantly with the brakes!!!!!

These are the real deal but are not cheap, I am selling them at $22.00 CDN each. ( local only)

We don't get a picture of a 510 tail light with one side stock and one LED?

Jeez...I dunno.....my Empire could be in jeopardy.....

Lets wait till we do the comparison, so you can all see they really are good. Then we will go from there.

I have I think 8 sets left as they are flying off the shelf.....

Hey Keith so these ones have a built in resister? If so could you bring a set tomorrow for me?

Thanks

I do not know, but, yes, I will bring a few sets tomorrow.

Would that let them work with a stock flasher?

Yes the cheap ones do not have the same resistance as the old incandescent bulbs and in a circuit that incorporates the turn signal the signal will flash fast.

Unless you switch to a non-mechanical flasher unit

Just switch to a electronic flasher. Or add a 3K ohm resister. I found it works perfect with a 10 dolla electronic flasher unit

The response to these bulbs has been overwhelming to say the least. Everyone that has bought a set is more than pleased with them.

I am going to go through all my Pm's in order of request, will fill with what I have left, which is not many at this point. I will order more if that is the case. So you know, I am not in this to make a ton of money but cover cost and put just a few extra bucks in my pocket. My main mission was to get a really good bulb for our aged tail lights, brake and running, so our 510 community benefits!

With the response I have had, and even more so to check it out, I am going to spec out an 1156 bulb and see what that is like with our rear turn signal.

I am using the 1156 LED bulb from VLED (Similar prices as yours, your price is a bit better). Its spectacular. U should spec out reverse white bulbs also,
