Anyone know how to convert 2 wire LED light to 3 wire. Radiantz has something and it looks quite simple but cost 10.00 + ship. it's probably a couple of diodes or something. If anyone knows what they are it would be a great help in making my own.


Thanks in advance

The only 3 wire LEDs that I know of are dual color. I'm not sure if your tring to hook them up to AC or DC. LEDs are a solid state device that only work with DC current. A postive leg and a ground leg. Where with a dual color two of the legs are + one for each color. Back when I was in school I actually made a one second clock with a two color LED and everybody wanted to know where I got the awsome car alarm. I told everyone it was a one of a kind. ;-)

The Radiantz accessory that you mention is a 2 input, one output device. It feeds a lower volatge to the LEDs for running lights and higher voltage for stop lights. Frankly, it is a very simple diode (for isolation) and resistor combo. But for $10 it is probably not worth the trouble of sourcing the parts, wiring and encapsulating it.
