INFORMATION

470ohm resistor (12v).

High intensity.
Low power consumption.
Excellent life.

Note When used in cars, use the resistor 560OHM because it is more appropriate to this link

Thanks Luis. I am assuming from this that each bulb draws 80mW and that I have to get the total by multiplying how many bulbs are lit during braking and when the bike is running.
