L.E.D. light upgrade on tractor

[ditzel]

Tonight I replaced my factory hazard/turn light bulbs with new 1156 l.e.d. bulbs from eBay. I also replaced the single red rear light with 2 new red l.e.d. truck-lite 35375r lights facing rear, and installed 2 new amber l.e.d truck-lite 35375y lights facing forward.

Looks like they are bright. Did you check how much amperage the 1156 replacements draw? How many LEDs does each one have?

 

[drivadesl]

Nice job. Can practically read the fine print on the beer bottle,

I have wanted to switch out my incan 1156 for led but none have Been bright enough. What's your thoughts now and which led pattern did you buy?

 

[ditzel]

These are bright, there are 18 leds on each bulb, they were $7.99 with free shipping from Washington state at yitamotor on ebay. They are definitely a faster and more white light than incandescent. I am curious how the amber version of this led bulb would look. This video has the hazards flashing with led on left, incandescent on right.

Thanks, that is what I was shooting for. The light strip was less than $10 too. I'd like to swap the other lights to LEDs.

I ran 24 inch amber led strips up the sides as well,, great diy for under $10 and no light to hit, Which you will..........

 

[ditzel]

Just added 2 new flashing led lights on the rops, amber and blue, for snow plowing.

 

[woodlandfarms]

Can you do blue? Not in CA or WA. Actually you are only allowed Amber and White if I am not mistaken.

I don't think you can use blue or reed in NJ, blue was for volunteers, and red was cops and fire, unless he has a light permit , altought if you not on a public hwy, not sure if it would matter

Need permit for blue in NJ also as used for fire personnel also.

 

[ditzel]

No , blue is not legal on plows or tractors in n.j., but driving my tractor on any road is not legal either unless I get a equipment in transit tag for it. I only use it to clear my own driveway.

 

[woodlandfarms]

Ahhhhhh... sorry.. thought you were doing this as a business....

 

[jodebg]

Did you upgrade your headlights? I have a b7800 and was thinking of trying to mount sealed beams in place of the originals and replace the connectors
with ones that will fit the sealed beam bulbs?

 

[ditzel]

Headlights are stock. thinking about adding a couple cheap led work lights, 1 facing forward and 1 rear.
