Review on 💡 4Pcs Aaron 50W 6ohm Load Resistors - Optimal LED Bulb Fast Hyper Flash Turn Signal Blink Error Code Fix (Resistors Highly Efficient with Hot Operation) by Dale Rylander

The purpose of installing resistors is to divert the electric current from incandescent lamps, which you will replace with LEDs. However, you shouldn't consume more than your particular car needs to avoid Hyperflare. I've found that 6 ohms isn't enough resistance and will therefore draw more current than you need (>2 amps). A standard incandescent bulb can draw between 1.75 and 2.25 amps, but the minimum requirement for a vehicle is probably around 1.2 amps. The problem with drawing more current than you need is that the current is converted to heat by the resistors. . Yes, by unnecessarily producing HEAT that now has to be dissipated through the METAL PARTS of your car. Sitting in traffic with the turn signals on can get very hot and possibly melt the wire insulation and plastic around them. In many vehicles, the brake and turn signals are combined in a two-pin bulb, which makes the situation more difficult in traffic jams (usually with automatic transmission), since braking may have to be done in addition to the warning lighting. In theory, a higher resistor will decrease the current drawn, but if you set the resistor to a very high value, it won't draw enough current to cancel hyperflash mode. Remember that you are installing these resistors in parallel so the final resistance depends on both the LED and the resistors and this will affect the current draw. I experimented a bit and found I needed 16-18 ohms to override the hyper blinking in my car. These particular resistors are hard to find, so I connected two 8 ohm (25W, 8 ohm) resistors in series (one connected to the other and both in parallel with the lamp circuit). Now it draws just over 1.1 amps, the turn signals work fine with or without the lights on, and the resistors run cooler than the 50w 6 ohm resistors I originally bought. Power is currently around 13 watts, so it's not critical at all if you're using 25 watt resistors. I suggest using zip ties to securely insulate all wires from ANY type of resistor used for this purpose.
