DIY always triggered me with its fascinating fulfillment and energy saving. If I could, I would do everything for a better world, and that led me here.<\/p>\n

With 35W as its consumption, I could hardly notice even any frog light there. You knew how the original light worked. Why not do something with it and make it better?<\/p>\n

This time, the task was harder than ever before. We came to the components first.
\n1. The manufactory said its LED light<\/a> consumption could reach 3W, but I didn\u2019t buy it. 1.5W toped. In order to get a more stable consumption, I had it at 1.5W, and would keep an eye on cooling system at back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

2. This was a single LED light and every frog light had 3 of them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

3. The LED light perfectly fitted with the original mold.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. This was how it looked when finished.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

5. Don\u2019t worship me when you sew how perfectly they got.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

6. The cooling system played an important role in lighting stability. With the help of constant-current control and fuse wire, lights could be more stabilized.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

7. Those steps before were not as important as this one: taking pictures with fixed shutter and aperture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Say goodbye to your bro.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Only ambient light.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Go for it, man.
\nIt gave out the light like a torch did. I would be picked ass, if I used this one in front of my car.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyway, I would always figure it out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

8. Test driving for LED lights. Here we go!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With fixed shutter and aperture, I took pictures in 3 situations:<\/p>\n

Ambient light<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

LED frog lights on.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Head lights<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

LED frog lights on plus head lights.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Those 2 lights looked like a pair of monster eyes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Most of all, they cost less power and were more friendly to the environment.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

P = 13V * 0.34A =4.42
\nThe consumption of one single LED bulb was 4.5W meanwhile that of the original light was 35W. So I did it.
\nThose could be used as DRL in daytime.<\/p>\n
