I have purchased these but got no information card or anything just the leds so my first question for now is, whats the diodes forward current (mA)?
262765
Any standard size LED sold these days is probably going to have a max current of around 30mA. Run it at 80% of that for a good long life. Look online for data sheets to really get a handle on this.

These are not just regular LEDs. They are LEDs controlled by a small controller chip. The forward current varies wildly as they flash as can be noted by watching the current with a scope. No need for a series resistor at all. Just hook them up to 3 VDC or so and away you go. I noted that they begin to work well at about 2.5V and current draw begins to get fairly large at about 4V. Within that voltage range no need for resistors.

Forward volt on the bulb is 3.2 to 3.4 dc volt.Color wave length is R-625-630 G-520-525 B-460-465.Rule of thumb buying bulk led over seas also when no stat is listed cheap means bulbs voltage is 3 some.Not 12. Im light bulb collecting fool so take it from me.These bulbs however are good bright fast flssh. Resistor value:at least1/4 watt to1/2.100 ohm at 9 volt dc 220 ohm at 12 volt dc.I know this crap can be a panin so I broke all down.Hope this helps. 24 mA yes would be correct

I checked the box that my lights came in and it says 1.9A @ 12v, 0.8A @ 24v. It seems like when I installed them I checked the current draw and it was about 1.0A but can't remember for sure. However, using 27 watts and 12 volts it calculates out to 2.25 amps. I know mine are not drawing near that much.

I'm wondering the same thing. It does NOT power my LED strip, and I'm wondering what's wrong.

Try googling for a "LED driver", rated for the correct wattage... Maybe if you take out the stock one you can match it up. If your under warranty contact the seller and get a replacement (2 yrs I believe).

I'm sorry, I can't tell you. I havent gotten them hooked up yet so I can't even tell you if I am happy with how bright they are. I'm hoping with that many led's in them that I won't be disappointed. I mounted them on the visors of my truck so I'd have a strong light right over me. You might get online to Amico and see if they can give some technical data for you. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Find one with a higher wattage equivalent, they work but not as bright as i would like.I also need to keep one of the original bulbs in the circut. (7) LED & (1) regular filament bulb.If I didn't bulbs would constantly flash. Has to do with Malibu transformer voltage regulator.

The LED's are not available separately. If it were to malfunction you can always contact us about it. Sincerely, Liz

Yes I purchased some from a vendor on Amazon. They work great so far. They have been in for a little less than a month. Here is what I bought. HERO-LED Back Pin Tower T3 G4 Base Bi Pin JC LED Halogen Xenon Replacement Bulb, 12V AC/DC or 24V DC, Desk Lamps, Pendant Lights, Puck Lights, Under-counter Lights, Under-cabinet Lights, Marine, Boats, Yachts, Accent, Display, Landscape and General Lighting, 18 SMD LEDs, 30-35W Replacement, 5-Pack, Cool White

They are LED of course, so they pull little current. I am assuming much less than one amp. If you are trying to relate them to an incadecent headlight/foglight bulb... 20-25 watts is a guess. They are the brightness that you would expect compared to factory LED strip lights. However, I am frustrated with my second set of these and would not suggest them due to the quality of solderjoints and assembly.

I have used Amazon in the past for the "clear" or "white" LED"s. It has been so long ago, cannot remember where the red's were purchased. Make sure the vendor shows the voltage range to use. Those things go "pop" real easy if operated above the rated voltage.

The forward voltage of most LEDs are not the nominal 0.7V for diodes. It varies with doping (which determines the color). Green LEDs have typicals of 2-3.5V. Basically, for a meter with only 3V supply batteries, it would be OL

I do not know the amp draw, but led's use very little current. I have my blue led lite for hi beam indicator.

Contact LED Supply (802-728-6031) and ask them for the replacement for LED driver MD-LED-D35-2. The part needed is LD-CU7021AF MagTech - 9-Watt 700mA Constant Current LED Driver. For installation connections, cut plugs from old driver and connect to new driver as follows: A/C in: Black (plug side) to Brown (driver side): White (plug) to Blue (driver); D/C out: Red to Red & Black to Black. This worked for me, and cost $16.99 including shipping.

These are 12V (probably AC only)If you will have transformer to 12V they will work technically. If you have an isntallation with multiple MR16s and you would like to change it to LED I would recommend to change the transformer to LED version. Otherwise it may not work or if it will work you will decrese the lifespan of the bulb (I work for LED manuacturing company in EU)

You need to buy separate resistors. I bought the putco ceramic ones with these. You need one per side. Keep in kind these LEDs are less bright than stock, but give the LED look(instant on off).

I have called LED Wolesalers and talked to the guy's there, They are very helpful. Any question that you have they can answer.

Dylan, the data sheet I used can be found at https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Components/YSL-R596CR3G4B5C-C10.pdf The forward current for all three colors is 20 ma. For 12v supply, you can use 560 ohm for the Red diode (12v - 2.0v) /20ma = 500 ohm. 470 ohm for the green and blue. You can use larger resistors if you want to reduce the current. Hope this helps..
