Hi
To improve my visibility on the road I was thinking about connecting LEDs to my motorcycle (rear brake light and turn lights)
I have a degree in EE, but didn't practice it a lot of years (worked mainly in programming) so please be patient with me
The final goal I strive for is about the same as shown here:
to have 2 LED strips in each side of the jacket (to each turn light), and another 1 strip in the middle for the braking light (will be ON only when the braking light will be ON - or will be 50% brightness always and when braking will rise to 100%, what should be better?)
I bought a couple of LED strips (5050 SMD LEDs) like the ones here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-20M-RGB-5...ip-Flexible-IR-Remote-12V-power-/272359259204
They work on 12V DC
The motorcycle is a Suzuki GW250, and I've got the technical book of it, which include all of the schematics needed..
Attaching the wire diagram from the book, highlighted the relevant areas
That's the first "big" project i'm starting alone in this field, so would appreciate any help, where should I start, what should I look for and how should I build the schematic for my own wiring?
Thanks.
