Adding LED light strips

Post by Charlies Angles »



I’m in the U.K. and looking forward to getting my GL1800 trike built, though it will mainly have the standard Wing lights on.
I’ve searched the forum but been unable to find any definitive guide how to add types of LED lights, as static or sequencing, as I want to join in on Light Parades.
So, I’m looking for help and advice on what to look out for in buying, assembling and wiring safely.
I’m sure the technical members can add some information on how they put theirs together and think it would make a good tutorial on the site.

Probably best handled by someone local to you.

After all, many here in North America certainly have differences in MOT-style inspections. For us to know much about how that influences how a vehicle is modified could make a difference in how the topic is answered.

Luck to ya!

Check out WLED. It is great software to control LED strips. As to hardware check out QuinnLED.info he sells in Europe and has some great boards that run WLED.
