led light bulb comparison

AK49BWL · 11-23-2008, 04:11 PM

heh, if only it were that simple.

IIRC, there are two 3mm LEDs and one 5mm in the driver side door controls, and one 3mm in the passenger. just regular LEDs, from SBL.. but I flattened the heads on some of them so they'd work better. also, on the passenger side, you have to aim the bulb just right so it lights up the whole of both switches. the rear window switches have a single 5mm flat-headed LED. The 4x4 system is 3 3mm LEDs for the status indicators and a 5mm for the backlight. The headlight switch is a 3mm flat-headed. I used 470 ohm resistors behind all except the 4x4 status lights, as they were already LEDs to begin with.

oh and btw, the headlight switch is a major bitch, as you have to have the resistor inline inside the tube. unless you do some severe modifications of the switch itself

if you guys want pics, I can always go pull them out of the truck.

**bwhitfield24** · 11-23-2008, 04:31 PM

pictures are always welcome...

i never had a problem with superbrightleds bulbs. i had mine since February and i work at night so i use the EVERY day since.

1.5 second shudder. 360º bulbs used.

leds used for the tag lights.

Tag lights are stupid bright

But i need to get some LEDs from V-LED sometime, their product looks promising

it was not a sunny day but you get the idea

Blazer tails have the bulbs facing out...S10's face to the outside. Anybody else with a Dime do the 360 LED bulb comparison with their tails?

tt85_GM · 11-23-2008, 08:56 PM

I want to see an LED for the tag light on a stepside , they point down and there's only 1, I wonder how it would look.

***Wicked Mayhem*** · 11-23-2008, 10:36 PM

sounds like it's a pita to get LEDs for all the ac controls etc

AK49BWL · 11-24-2008, 12:06 AM

unless you have the automated HVAC, it's only 4 bulbs (6 if you have a rear window defogger)

and as for pics, I'll have those up in a few minutes.

AK49BWL · 11-24-2008, 02:45 AM

ok guys, sorry so long on the pics, was quite busy today with continuous snowfall LOL

So anyway, I'm pretty much am fed up with SuperBrightLED's #74 bulbs, I managed to break 1 more just pulling them out of the HVAC cluster, and a different one went out as I was driving. I can't recommend them anymore. Then I burned one up accidentally applying 12v to it

my fault... And it just figures that I can't find any of my backups now

..

Anyways, on to the pics:

Here are the door control bulb holders and lights, driver side:

Passenger side:

Here's how I have it pointed, directly into the distributor...

Foglight Switch (I do not know how to do the foglight ON indicator, as I do not actually have fog lights. lol)

Window Lock Switch:

Rear Defog:

Headlight Switch Bulb (look closely, you can see the blue of the resistor inside

):

Rear Window Controls:

Mirror Controls:

And for you 4x4 guys

:

Oh, and for my completely being overboard.......................

Sorry for my extremely long picture laden megapost

No, my camera does not have a macro function. It's a 2MP camera. I bought it in 2002. WHAT do you want from me

if I missed anything, let me know, I can always take more pics

**bwhitfield24** · 11-24-2008, 10:13 PM

Interesting... I'm not so sure I want to go that far....

**bwhitfield24** · 11-24-2008, 10:15 PM

btw, looks like the 5 LED 194's are back in stock....

I got my 2 green and 1 blue LED's from Superbrightleds.com today. I ordered them on Saturday night...

AK49BWL · 11-27-2008, 04:01 AM

SBL is usually pretty quick on shipping, I ordered my first set on a Monday, and they all got here on Thurs... if they're good with anything, it's their shipping speed. lol

V8Blaze · 11-27-2008, 12:12 PM

i know very few people will be interested but im goign to try and order some 194s for my dash next week . The thing is ive got a 1968 pickup dash in my blazer. The lighting design is less then great. But none the less if there is anyone reading this that has a steel dash swap using stock guages it will help iprove the half century old lighting lol.

supasoulja · 11-28-2008, 07:24 PM

anyone got any input on the led foglights like on the new audi's?

**bwhitfield24** · 11-29-2008, 04:17 PM

I got my 1/2" clips yesterday... Still waiting for my LED's from V-LED so that I can get them installed... I just ordered them on Monday though. They didn't come today so they'll be here on Monday most likely.

just curious, why out of the sockets?

**bwhitfield24** · 11-30-2008, 03:17 PM

By sockets I mean the actual brake lenses. I want to see how they are lit up... the way a stock bulb works is with two filaments, one for the running lights and 1 for the brake light. I'm curious how it works with the LED's, are half of them on for the running lights and then all of them for the brakes, or all on at a low voltage for running and then all on for brakes...?

Woody22 · 11-30-2008, 11:32 PM

Wow im def placing an order soon with them. I need to led everything else up. cuz only my cluster, hvac, headlight controls are led

Chris, do you have lights in the rearview mirror?

**bwhitfield24** · 12-01-2008, 11:31 PM

Please pardon the crappiness of the pictures, I wasn't the photographer. Also, I didn't do the dash stuff, just the 2 footwell lights, 2 map lights and the rear seat overhead light.

***orangesonoma*** · 12-02-2008, 12:10 AM

looks nice man...real nice...

i have a homelink mirror, there is no lights in it.

**bwhitfield24** · 12-02-2008, 08:03 AM

Stupid sunroof... Most of my light is in the back seat where the 2 48 LED boards are.

lol change some shit around..i bet you could figure out a way to get them in there

**bwhitfield24** · 12-03-2008, 03:21 PM

I got them up in there... and it almost looks like I could get a 3rd board in there.... heh

My issue is that because of the sunroof the light is over the back seats instead of right over my shoulder like in Chris' truck

tt85_GM · 12-03-2008, 09:55 PM

I got my LEDs in tonight, basically looks the same as these other guys pics but I'll post my own up...

The 20 LED 211/212 bulbs fit nice inside the map lights if anyone was wondering...

all I had to do was bend in the tabs a little...

stock lights...

Now all the LED's in...

48 LED for the dome (light cover on)

light cover off..

The feet lights/map lights look blue in the pic but they look fine. just the way my camera was set I guess.

Amazing, I love them, well worth the money.

***Wicked Mayhem*** · 12-04-2008, 12:11 AM

i need to get led's for my OHC. im going to order like 4 more 48 led panels, and then whatever bulbs the 4 round lights take.

ChrisInVT · 12-04-2008, 08:28 AM

I need to get some pictures of the LEDs in the interior of my truck and exterior of my car; but I'm never freaking home anymore...

Edit: Holy crap, I just noticed you updated your original posts...

i know my two door had a sunroof...but i am sure you can get something in the short console that would be better...

the 4 round lights are 194... i would try to use the extra 2 360 ones and see if they fit with the metal dome that is in there to reflect light... i put some in mine and they are bright....very bright...

but i used these..

The thing is ive got a 1968 pickup dash in my blazer. The lighting design is less then great. But none the less if there is anyone reading this that has a steel dash swap using stock guages it will help iprove the half century old lighting lol.

Still waiting for my LED's from V-LED so that I can get them installed... I just ordered them on Monday though. They didn't come today so they'll be here on Monday most likely.

I want to see how they are lit up... the way a stock bulb works is with two filaments, one for the running lights and 1 for the brake light. I'm curious how it works with the LED's, are half of them on for the running lights and then all of them for the brakes, or all on at a low voltage for running and then all on for brakes...?
