Nori,

Good find - it looks like it would work but will increase battery drain.
Plus you could easily remove the wires and install the real controller if it didn't work well.

I found the posts very interesting as they mixed English with another language.  The mixing was interesting and all the posters did it.

KZ, I'm from that country, Philippines, and our second language is English. Americans have great influence in our culture because they stayed here for a long time after the Spaniards. There are a lot of English words that does not have an equivalent Filipino word so we tend to use the English word instead or sometimes the Spanish equivalent or Chinese, etc. So when reading our sentences, you tend to just understand those English words... ;D   However, for us here, we cannot see the difference because we understand all words said...   There is another way to speak here, however, it's more of a fad than communication. It's called Tag-lish, the deliberate mixing of our language Tagalog (Filipino) and English... used by some teeners or other sub-culture groups.


About the Super 8 headlight, yes, I have done that in my s8.  I like the dimming feature when the engine is in idle but it's very dangerous when going downhill at night.  When going downhill, the engine is just at idle because you're coasting down, then suddenly lights dim. That's bad.

..sounds like a weak rectifier...

..or maybe a faulty wire in that circuit...
..every mod (action) necessitates a (reaction) mod..

I've heard about the same thing happening with HID's. The circuit that dims the lights
during idle doesn't like the load so you have to bypass it or trick it somehow. Try a
search on HID's cutting out and see if you find anything.

Buy a small projector type fog light... replace the bulb (H3) with super bright LED.... this will not drain your battery and the projector lens will give you a focused light...
