Wired Magnetic LED Light Set

[sahara]

I am looking for a set of wired LED lights, magnetic preferably, that I can quickly put on and detach from the back of trailers, drills etc.
The difficulty arises when I want the set to have the load resister already wired into the wiring of the set, so that the tractor recognises there is a set of extra lights plugged in and the repeater indicator on the dash board will then flash.
Not getting a lot of joy from the usual suppliers (sparex etc), so I'm grateful for any recommendations.

Thanks

Tractors will be fine. If you are worried. Drive to your local dealer ( remember buy local and all that ) and plug them in.....

LED Is the best way to deal with this.

Wireless magnetic over in the "Shop" worth a look, not sure about resistor ...................
Or E-Bay as price point doesn't always mean quality.

 

[sahara]

Both of the above examples are exactly what I'm looking for, but.... none mention the load resistor, and of the two that I tried at local dealers, a sparex and a kramp, neither had the resistor to make the "trailer indicators working" dashboard light on the tractor activate.
What have others done, or am I needlessly concerned, the storeman at this mornings dealer was puzzled because he was under the impression that it was a legal requirement, especially for cars to have the dashboard repeater working.
I think I shall speak to the utv products people tomorrow.

Would you consider fitting them yourself?

 

[Nearly]

Just buy and fit a load resistor yourself.

Led rear lights are great on a long wire as the voltage drop isn't a problem.

 

[sahara]

We have a fertiliser spreader that we changed the rear bulb based lights over to LED and fitted the resister so that the dashboard lights work.
However when you add up the cost of the parts required plus your time then a purchase, plug and use looks good value, but not if it doesn't do what one wants!
It might however be necessary to go down this route!

 

[Mursal]

A lot of those cheaper lights wont have enough room to fit a full size resistor.

It seams a bit wrong to buy a nice new set then immediately farm butcher them to fit the resistor!

If needs must though!

I think you are right, some more investigation required I think!

If u get pulled over with working lights and meeting all other legislation except the fact that the dashboard doesn’t flash the trailer light working light, I would be very disappointed that the police couldn’t get on with catching more serious criminals.

Could always blag it and say the dash indicator was working when u left the yard, the fact that the dashboard indicator has stopped working during your journey is a fault of the manufacturer for not clearly displaying time and date of when the component/bulb will fail.

Have you seen these?

Wireless LED lights

They're on Marketplace somewhere but no matter what I enter in the search box I can't find them.

They were out of stock last week however, seem there as been a bit of a UK rush on them since they were first mentioned on TFF a couple of weeks ago !

And keep tapping the dash with your finger, waiting for it to reappear in front of their eyes.
Like Tommy Cooper ..........

yes - as I said they are out of stock so we have made the product inactive until more stock gets to the UK

Why not go wireless? Bit more money but no wires to worry about.
