Sam Buchanan Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) If needing a 6v LED flasher think outside the box. Try the electric bike flashers: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313&_nkw=6v+flasher+LED&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_odkw=6v+flasher&_osacat=0 Here is a 6v positive ground LED flasher: https://www.ebay.com/itm/134065239881?hash=item1f36e93749:g:NUYAAOSw-nhjB8Ia&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoIerHlmQ6%2FkUM1tj%2Bfn7ArMPU9S%2BIhGM79DaDIza68w%2ByYeuqNKBzEvABV5uESPkbQkPQ%2BjsUeTNO69xMRfr%2Bruxstt%2BPhBTEcEZPoarAw%2BqL%2BeGYE%2BQk%2B2injN%2F2ZkZtfdBPdwiDkjtaLSoL0q4WRfn85XmR%2FvlIWnEo62yk7Twp4ap6Z6Vte%2ByhW0uMyZaGSOwtHX2TnWTS51jPPOXAXg%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR4CyruaLYQ Edited November 9, 2022 by Sam Buchanan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See my explanation above on how mechanical flashers work and understand that an LED bulb will draw substantially less current and that is why they don't work with mechanical flashers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUTFXD Posted November 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 LEDs dont draw enough current to heat up the Bimetal strip in a regular flasher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUTFXD Posted November 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 Ended up going with 755 bulbs, They fit and had a higher amp draw (And therefore ,assumably , brigher). The Housings I ordered didnt match up with the factory holes and I'm not about to start punching holes in factory metal. Sooo I ended up using one bolt and zip tying the other end leaving them sort of lop sided aaaand the housings didnt end up looking like I thought they would.
