There is a link to a web site that demonstrates the "difference" in blinker speed.
Please don't call rice patrol either. I have seen "ricers" with them before, and I actually like how it looks.

i got that...it gets annoying hearing the clicking sound go so fast..but some dynamat around the relay they mail you does fine. The bulb itself cannot switch on and off that fast..but it does give it somewhat of a super fast blinking rate..the bulb just dosent go completely off between bursts

If you break/burnout/takeout one of your turn signals, then turn them on to that side, the other (front or rear) on that side should blink a lot faster, and the green arrow in your dash will blink rapidly. It is to let you know that you have a short, aka burnt out bulb. It is possible for them to blink that rapidly.

Anyways...I think they look good sometimes, on certain cars. Havn't seen it on a max though.

not making a joke

I am serious.... How about those who drive who suffer for sizures, epileptic attacks.. can this be a danger on the road...? if its bright enought to cause a strobe effect... then its really a safety hazard

all you have to do to get the same effect is buy the 1156 LED bulbs for your rear and it will do the same thing....

Thanks,
Ted
