Improving Lighting (HS1 Headlamp Bulb) ETC

Post by TECHTEACHER »

1) I am looking to improve the rather feeble headlamp bulb on my Derbi Terra Adventure, better bulbs seem to be scarce for this fitment HS1 and the HID route also appears a no go at the moment...any advice ?

2) LED indicators, LED brake lights to replace the existing bulbs are they a good idea ? Who supplies them ?

3) Auxillary lights for upsetting the Rabbits and Deer, what should I use given I suspect the battery is somewhat limited ?

Thanks Folks

It's not so much the battery as your alternator - what does that push out ?

Try changing you front light to HID. It's cheap, easy to do and it turns night into day.
