Do LED auxiliary lights cause electrical problems?

Here's another vote for Spyderpop's LED-equipped Bumpskid, and one for any of the LED products from TricLEDs. :2thumbs:

How visible is it in bright sunlight? That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Having seen them on the road during the day, they are very visible!

Ah, that's what I needed to know. Thanks!

I have the Tric-Led Headlights/fog lights on my 2014RTS-SE6 that were replaced this year( because the right headlight was out) with the gold fans.

The front of the spyder with the headlights/fog lights "ON" is well lite up during the day/night. The fog lights/headlights give a wider view of the road( side of the road, & on oncoming traffic). Sorry no pic's ( spyder is in winter storage). Deanna

Ditto for my light upgrade

I ordered Lamont's complete light upgrade and the difference is mind boggling with how much more road I see. Is there a difference in these kits for performance?
I have on coming vehicles flashing their brights at me because they are being blinded. This never happened before with my stock lighting. The LED head lights I have now are as good as any car I have ever owned.

I upgraded to the LED bulbs for headlights and foglights. There is definitely a brighter light from the headlights, but not enough for desert night riding as far as I'm concerned. I need dedicated driving lights for that.

VERY, very visible! :2thumbs:
I'm trying to find a picture of my bike taken in daylight... :banghead:

I don't know, someone who has Lamont's light upgrade should chime in with the answer. Deanna

I now have the a arm lights - very visible day and night.
Bonus at night is extra lateral light as they shine thru the wheels - nice surprise

I Agree

As I rode in the dark tonight I agree the lights are dialed in for typical single lane driving. I have great forward lighting but very little forward ditch lighting to see wildlife. My fog lights do a great job of close ditch lighting but the raod ahead I wouldn't get much warning if a deer was making it's move.
