How To make a 12v Dual Input Circuit | Vlogmas 2019 | FlyRyde

[@MonaichFother]

Great help, I saw these little diodes on a popular auction site but thought they were applicable to automotive use, but every day is a skool day. :)

[@raymondadams5261]

I used what I learned in this tutorial to fix a camera feedback issue I was having with my BOSS dual camera car stereo in my Jeep Wrangler. I wanted to be able to use the backup camera to watch what was going on behind me in traffic, parking lot, job site, etc. The issue was every time I turned on the camera using the car stereo control my brake lights illuminated. I installed the diodes, one in the stereo camera power feed and the other at the backup light camera power feed. No more backup light illumination when I activate the camera from the stereo. It also stopped the image pulse when the turn signal is active. You can teach an old dog new tricks. Thanks Chris.

Dude this is an awesome mod great way to make something like emergency lights

[@Dazed1Hobbies]

Can also add a resistor to one end to run a constant light limited power for a tail lamp. then hit say the brake on the none resistor line to give full power. With that one could one strip for tail and brakes.

[@flyryde]

DazednconfusedRc I’ve done with this a few times, but now I realize all those times I used way too small wattage of resistors. To keep things from getting hot, you’d want a big fat 2 watt or more resistor that can handle the power drop without turning into a red hot little disaster.

[@Dazed1Hobbies]

@@flyryde hey thanks for the extra input on that! Much appreciated bud!

[@flyryde]

DazednconfusedRc hahaha, I see what you did there 😜😂

Whalaaa this1 when o/o the field great super idea thank you Chris... Instead of thanking my teacher THANK YOU

[@vinniecar]

Chris this was my question after yesterdays video. Thank you

[@flyryde]

Vincent yeah buddy! Now here’s the crazy thing I’m trying to do... diodes for each ground wire going into the reverse panel on the WRX lights, to make them function with animations, AND be able to go into full bypass all grounded at once via relay that’s turning the normal 12v reverse signal into ground 🤔😂😳

[@gvillaflores]

Hi! Great video. Quick question. If I’m adding a relay. Do I add the diode before the relay from the switch or after the relay to the lights?

[@williamweckel8140]

Just stumbled across your channel. I'm fairly new to working with electronics, tho I am an electrician. I've recently built a prototype 2 channel strobe flasher for my work truck and was wondering how to go about using the lights I've also built as auxiliary lights as well as strobe warning lights. I had the suspicion that all I needed to do was use a couple of IN4007 diodes to achieve my desired goals and this video of yours confirmed my suspicions. Thank you so much for this!!! New subscriber too!!!

[@NsSDACe]

Man, thats suppppeerr helpful! Im new an learning into the trade! So awesome for u to sure as im a very low/poor income an cant do the classes, so amazed to see this an someone to actually help other that are/want to be learning this trade! My hat off to u, keep up the good work an ive learnt some much so far an hope to do my own build!!

[@panteraklan681]

Hi Chris first of all, thanks for share all that knowledge it’s very useful, also it grow on me a question, how u will do the connections to work with ur factory lights? Let’s say I want strobe light in my headlights without remove their original function, will be very thanks full of u can resolve this for me

Great video.....LIKE ALWAYS!!! Thank you

[@LeandroFTW]

Are these error cancelation bulbs? My Jeep freaks out when ever I use anything other than old school bulbs.

[@flyryde]

Leandro Escobar I literally took em out of the box and made a video. We gotta test em out 👌 the circuit board looking ones are for sure.

[@HotTakeDebate]

Hey Chris! I have been watching your videos and rewatching to pick up things I might have missed non stop. But I was wondering what tools and parts you use for your testing station, how it's all wired together, and how you're able to control all the little functions with your ghozt modules. I have a testing station that I rigged myself, but I want to make one that looks more clean, less bulky and more out of the way to save space. Keep up the good work! Your videos are always very fun and very interesting to learn from!

[@panteliscoutoulas1775]

Hi Chris from Greece 🇬🇷...Liked your video ,where can I find those bright T15 led bulbs ??Wish you the best and Merry Christmas to u and family 🎄

[@extremelocura]

Happy New Year.. thanks for the video

[@tomasituione4245]

Can we get a video of dual input that favors the strobe in a volunteer firefighter and would love to make my truck strobe for calls

[@lanceopperude5868]

Question.....auxiliary switches in my 2018 Polaris ranger are WAY TO BRIGHT blue, how can I tame them down???

[@flyryde]

Lance Opperude maybe it’s possible to make a dual input circuit with a relay, that cuts power to bright mode when it sees the nighttime lights come on, and then sends power through a 2 watt resistor with the right amount of ohms to drop voltage a bit for night use. Basically a custom night time mode, without limiting them during the day when you need the full output to see em.

[@fgmedina2804]

Will those tiny diodes work with bigger and /or more powerful leds? LIke a light bar or off road led lights? TIA

[@leisarmiento6785]

Great!! But can you please answer. Is it possible to use for my headligths then passing lights? How about passing light with horn when my horn was a negative trigger?

[@KyleKhaosPowell]

Hell yes bro! Keep it up!!!

[@flyryde]

Kyle Powell I will dude 🙏

[@netuno96]

Have some circuit to use my blinkers on the brake lights? Like tail as turn module? How they works, and i can make one at home ?

[@chrischavez628]

I’ve been looking for something like this forever. You sell the strobe remotes or modules on your site? I’m also a huge fan of the anzo remote modules, best setup I’ve ever used and it’s so simple along with it having its own relays for each input.

[@vinniecar]

Longjohnsteeltip, Chris added a link to the flasher in the description. You can also find the other products there.

[@flyryde]

Longjohnsteeltip those remotes are so dope, and a great price too. Yeah you can always check my amazon shop for my recommended tools and materials

[@MidoChan808]

I know this video is old but I hope you see this comment man. I’m building headlights for my wrx and I’m adding profile halos, and xkglow strips. I want to have all of the leds just named running as my DRL but also while low beams are on. Do I have to build this diode setup for that to work? I was going to run the 12v power to the power after the DRL box but also to the low beams power. There’s already a relay that turns the DRLs off when the low beams are activated. So I thought I could just split the 12v power into 2 wires. But I may need to split it using this diode setup?? Please help🥲

[@gorillaarm67]

is there a way to make one override the other. like when you have a tail light /turn signal. how can you make the turn signal override the tail light

[@RawbasicInc]

Thanks brother you convinces me today to subscribe 😂 👍

[@blameitonthewhiteguy]

Could this work for addressable LEDs? I see you’re running multiple rgb products on your gtr build and I’m trying to figure out how to do that on a set of addressable strips. For instance running a blue ghozt with a separate music controller

[@kingavegarage8722]

Super helpful!!!!

[@adamcooley5594]

What's the trick to choosing the right size diode?

[@markmartinez7998]

Chris this video is great gave me a idea for my wife camper can you cover led in clear epoxy

[@flyryde]

mark martinez all LEDs have different stuff going on inside. Some are easy, others are temperamental. What kind of LED do you have?

[@felixgarciamedina5471]

Question, I want to use this to turn my side marker into turn signal, with this circuit the constant power takes over the circuit, what do I do so the turn signal takes over??? Side marker is a led bulb. Thanks

[@jameswitalldadames]

So these diode say they are rated for 1amp. How many light applications can be tied to a single diode?

[@daveast01]

If you had side running lights and you get them to come on at night with side lights but flash when using turn signal but also flash during day when side lights are not on?

What if I have my strobe on first then turn on my head light.....it’s gonna work same way right ?????

[@flyryde]

Sometimes that can make the tail lights explode. J/k :) you’d be fine 👍 they’d just stay solid in that case

[@brownman1343]

I was gonna put on the diodes on. So when I turn the main light on which is the head lights.....the strobes are gonna be off once I turn the main power course on??

[@brownman1343]

Bro I did mi stone light and they are so dim 😔😔

[@jimster1111]

hey guys ive been wanting to build a headlight and turn signals for my dirtbike. what are some bright LED bulbs i could use as a headlight? also does anyone sell empty headlight cases or would i have to take an old one from a junk bike?

[@flyryde]

jimster1111 custom means you’re generally on your own, so do some light searching, but I wouldn’t hold your breath about finding the perfect new empty case to build in. Any cheap LED low beams on the market are gonna perform great. These days even the stuff that sucks doesn’t really suck if you don’t have super particular needs and expectations.

[@towtruckaj]

Would be better if you made strobes override the running lights, I don't have the remote module you got but I did use a similar strobe module to make my truck lights strobe, normally they are running lights when I hit my strobe switch it overrides the running lights and strobes instead then back to running lights when strobe switch is off, I don't have a way of remotely changing pattern tho ;/ I gotta manually touch the wire for that lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boXMan58rc2Xp6M

[@BeatTheD3viL]

Can I use the same diodes for reverse camera trigger input ? Trying to have 1-physical switch as input and 2-reverse gear backup lamp in OR gate configuration.
