So you gonna put them in parallel or series?Used to have to get a heavy duty flasher for the older trucks if you wanted to pull a trailer. Standard flasher was underpowered for the extra incandescent load of trailer lights and truck.
Most newer vehicles have a heavier flasher already if they have a towing package. Most 1 tons do anyways.
LED lamps DECREASE the load, and the flasher unit flashes faster because it doesnt see ENOUGH load.
The resistor in line between the flasher and the light "fakes" the flasher into seeing a normal load. Resistance to voltage increases current.
Damn shame theres no Radioshack stores left around. You could run down and pick up those resistors cheap and quick.
