66 dart LED prototype working for now
IT WORKS!!
I've been prototyping my rear led's (cheap china LED's 4 chip 70ma) and let the magic smoke out of a few. until i finally figured out what to do. now I"ll order the good lumileds and have some boards made that actually have copper traces and good circuit work on them for voltage regulation.
I'm upgrading the wiring harness for the light's and ignition/charging plus checking out whatever else is bad in a 40+ year old wiring harness.
here's a link to the operation

and yeah before you ask, they are going to be 12 volt power regulated for voltage spikes(waiting on the regulators to come in ) 12volt lock to 10.5 volt unlock . that means that it'll lock voltage @ 12 volts After I get to 10.5 volts and won't let it go over 12 volts up to a (?)50 volt spike.
I had it PWM'd but didn't like the differential in the cheap variable dc motor/PWM modules. so I used 2 different set's of resistors to give me variable light setups. I am waiting on a good set of PWM modules/with regulationbuilt in to arrive and I'll test that setup out on the good lumileds I'm ordering
the front ones I'm still working on to get the differential correct looking. only 20MA led in there right now you can see it brighten up but it looks like crap with the parking lights on.
