i have recently replaced my s2000 h1 hi beams with some Led ones. I don't use hi beams ever so i don't need them. I rather just have a nice white lights while I'm cruising. I know there are more expensive halogen bulbs and stuff but that's not what I am looking for.

what I want to know is how can I make these leds brighter. In daytime mode I know the voltage is lowered quite a bit. How can I up the voltage or do whatever I need to make them brighter. Also Where is the relay/module.

Another thing to note is when I activate my hi beams they do get brighter but the hids turn on too which I don't want. Thank you

 

i fixed my issue,

I Bought two of these and wired them in parallel on each of side of the h1 socket.

I don't know if I emailed you or not, but I have sent several owners to that Radio Shack page to make the LED lights brighter, and need to add this fix to my "freebies" page.

Why it works:

The factory DRL system pulses the high beam lamps on and off about 100 times a second. Since the lamps are incandescent bulbs they heat up and cool down relatively slowly, so the bulb essentially "sees" the average of the voltage pulses, somewhere around 7 or 8 volts. But LEDs react much faster so they literally turn completely off when the DRL pulses off, and since our eyes react to the average the intensity of rapidly pulsing light sources they appear dim.

By putting a capacitor in parallel with the LED lamps, the capacitor charges up to 12v during the DRL "on time", and it then maintains much of that voltage even while the DRL circuit is pulsing off, powering the LEDs during the "off time". That's why they appear brighter to your eyes after the capacitor is installed, they are lit constantly instead of just half the time.

 

We don't recommend this idea ~ it will melt your plastic housing at some point. Don't ask how we know
