Hi.
I'm not as circuit savvy as I thought I was.
I'm trying to replace the indicators on my motorcycle with LED jobs, but rather than buying off the shelf I want to build my own as I want to incorporate sidelights and brakelights in there as well.
What I am trying to do is wire three rows of five amber LEDs in each indicator on some vero board. The bikes voltage is around 14v (to a maximum of 15v). I've bought the LEDs and some resistors and I've experimented with some different ways of wiring them up but I can't seem to get the required brightness. I can get one LED at a time nice and bright but the others are dimmer. If someone can just show me the way to connect them for maximum efficiency I can figure out how to put in the other lights.
Thanks in advance.
