    No, I don't think it will melt down, but only because resistor ratings
    are way understated. I'm just amused by your comment of "Don't give a
    stuff what mister ohm said" I did it this way so this is the only
    correct way to do it. George, your static load is 60 watts, your
    wattage rating is 30 watts per reisistor, you put 10W resistors in
    there and you still insist your way is the only way, and those idiots
    out there are, well, idiots for not doing it your way. Anybody wishing
    to do this should listen to you rather than to someone who actually
    knows what they are doing and who actually did it to his ute 2 years
    ago. Now tell us that with a 60 watt load the flash rate is still the
    same as it was before you did this.

    As I said before, ****, you're an idiot George.

    Theo, you are not reading what I said:
    I did not say that this was the only way to do it or evev the proper logical
    way to do it.
    What I said was the way I did it and it is working
    I"t is called experimenting Theo and lo and behold, this is the way things
    have been created for years.
    Or do you think that there was a workshop manual come out before anything
    was thought of?
    and if you don't like the way I do things, then you can **** off and stick
    your finger in another dyke instead of up your boyfriends arse or your own

  5. Don't give a stuff Cam
    I experimented and came up with something that worked and still works and
    was just passing on what I had done to try to save someone $10 or so on each
    light but, if Theo or anyone else doesn't want to save some money by doing
    things themselves, then they can all go and **** themselves, but I guess
    they would be too lazy to even do that

    [pictures George screaming "you can fucking **** **** dyke poofter ****
    yourself" as he watches his resistors melt through the indicator
    housings...]

  8. make as many snide remarks as you like knobless
    I am the one saving money and it still works well after about six months or
    so

  9. Now Jordan, you are pushing the boundaries of friendship a bit here with
    that statement.
    Me.? I don't give a stuff, if I can save a few dollars by making sonething
    that will work, then I will and tell anyone who wants to know but, there are
    a few in here who, maybe just for the sake of it,, make snide remarks on
    how it won't work because that is not what the book says or they heard from
    a really good friend who is an engineer of some sorts, that he told them how
    to do it

    Of course you probably never stopped to consider that most of the
    people replying actually *are* engineers and/or sparkies ?

    No, it does mean they know something, unlike others.

    Thanks god you don't care George; otherwise it'd just look like you were
    desperately trying to cover the fact that you're shit at maths.

    Yes of course that's a facter Jordon (that and the fact that the resistors
    are probably underrated as Theo said) but there's a simple reason that the
    store-bought ones are encased on a big aluminium heatsink and that's 'cause
    they are dissipating a lot of heat!
    Go turn your indicator on and then hold the bulb while it's flashing; that's
    AT LEAST how hot the resistor will be getting [though the resistor will
    actually be getting a lot hotter] and George's will be getting hotter again
    because he's buggered up the resistance and made them too low (a normal
    indicator bulb is 21W or 10W but George's resistors are running 30W each).
    He's probably put them side-by-side too so that'll concentrate the heat even
    more!

    Now I doubt that George will ever even ride the thing long-enough to have a
    problem and I doubt that anyone here would care less if he did but it's
    important that readers realise that his estimates and assumptions are just
    guesses and shouldn't actually be trusted by anyone.....

    Plus; I just kinda' enjoy pointing out his stupidity....

  19. You have got no idea when it comes to experimenting

    have you knobless??

  20. Whether I am shit at maths or electronic theory makes no difference
    knobless,

    If it works, then try it

    You think you are better at maths than me?.....good for you, cause I don't
    give a shit
