Re: LED Headlights?
I use more recent model halogens from Walmart. They only cost 8 bucks. All you have to do is grind off the 3 glass tits on the surface to allow it to recess in the bucket's frame. Much brighter and have caused me no problems after I found out I bought a new battery that had a dead cell. I suggest updating to a modern combined rectifier and regulator in one, though. Even without, I have had no problems since. But, I think running a sealed battery with that bulb may have initially burned a terminal on the back of my original rectifier.
