Driving lights - SVA compatible ?

[Brett James-McCall]

Interesting, as the SVA manual says it has to be E marked....

 

[Ian Anderson]

Visit a bike shop they have SMALL aftermarket indicators bith in bulb and led
and they are e marked

A bit of a mod and they can be made to fit for SVA

the manual states the lights should be "e" marked but goes onto saying..."that providing the item has the same characteristics to that of an "E" marked item that is also acceptable"

what that means in practice i dont really get...(paperwork BS of support ?)

 

[Simon Rider]

Same characteristics = colour & brightness ?

 

Here's an interesting doc on designing led lamps for automotive apps.
