AP2 tail light problem

[zhong]

Anyone try measuring how much power is actually going through that globe? Why don't people put in a resistor instead? Or am I talking fluff again.. I'd atleast hook up an LED instead, no heat and doesn't consume as much power burning halogen! Looks like it'll be more than a project when I recieve my set!

P.S. Did anyone install it without cutting anything?

you can't install it without cutting the chassis it wont fit.

I had a resistor unit in there first which ended up burning and died, the bulb acts like a resistor and works fine and it only turns on when I brake so can't really notice.

It dosen't drain enough power to empty your battery overnight or even afew nights it does however kind of look cool haha.

It does not happen with everyone so this shouldn't be a reason why you don't order your ap2 lights, I would play around with it some more but I'm not the best with electronics
