Timing Lights
AA003 - November 16th, 2021 at 03:52 PM
I need to buy a timing light. Any recomendations?
Battery or 12v?
LED or Xenon tube?
I just want something reliable so would prefer LED. Anyone had experience with these?

The crocodile clips work well
make sure you have the correct voltage globe in the system

It's pointless.
BTW I have the leds for the blinkers connected. they are BRIGHT! I now have 3 warning lights and 2 buzzers. I won't forget to cancell the blinkers.

Ultra reliable Dave, I have used one with a probe in place of 1 crocodile clip since I started my apprenticeship in 1966 & it has many other uses
too.

Surely someone on here has an electronic distributor?
I didn't think anyone used points.

Just wired it how I said. Just ran a wire to the relay/indicator switch. When the flasher is off the light turns on (earths through the blinker
globes) It is BRIGHT!
