turn signals.

Finished the first 2 prototypes for improved lighting on the
rear of our coaches LEDS
Both for the Classic Bluebird tailight and also the square Hella style
light (square)
Unfortunatley I can not predict in the foreseeable future when we will
work on the Volvo style light
The classic currently contains 24 high bright leds for the red and 36
for the amber and the outlook is very promising. That is likely to
change with testing
There will be some tweaking to do because of the fact that the
original Cat's Eye lense was designed for an incandescent bulb. We
have to change the array for the pillow in the center of the lense
(the little round knob on the center of the inside of the lense)
The square light should be fairly straight forward just add more leds.
This has been an on going project of mine for the last 2 years and
finally it starting to show some results.
Yhey will be a splash resistant module that can be added to the
original lights replacing the incandescent bulb
Ther will be one size for the cats eye light a combination stop and
turn light the hella lights will be individual ligths as before
We are also going to look at the older front turn signals with their
odd ball size
Stay tuned

Hella style lights available?
