I am working on adding front running lights in the turn signals on my SV1K and picked up these dual color changing LED bulbs so that the running lights are white but switch to amber when the turn signals are switched on.
I failed to catch that they are rated for a max of 14.5 volts. the charging system on the SV1K puts out 14.6 volts so the lights cut off when the engine is started and the charging voltage reaches 14.5 volts.
I need to add a resistor in line to reduce the voltage four tenths of a volt to be safe but am not sure what resistor would be best for this aplication?
any electronics experts here?
