Budget DC Conversion and LED light upgrade

[MercMenace]

I have decided to change this thread around.

I am trying to build a Super Bright, Super Easy, most importantly, SUPER CHEAP DC/LED light conversion.

Not alot of us can afford to drop 2-300 dollars on one RIGID LED.
My budget for this build is 1 crisp 100 dollar bill.

I am using the Buy it Now option on EBAY with free shipping when ever I can.

Most of my parts are being shipped from China so I should have this done by Christmas 2020

Parts I am using with price + Shipping.

Flood Lights: 24.50

Misc: Wires Connectors....


Total price comes to 114.65 + misc stuff.
Probably going to be around 125.00

I didn't hit my budget but I also added extra brake lights and a 3rd headlight. This conversion could actually be done for around 50 dollars.

Once I get all the parts I will fab a wiring diagram and start making my harness.

im sure it would. probably runs mostly the same current and volts of a blaster

I just went ahead and ordered it.

My goal is to do a complete DC/LED lighting overhaul with Wiring Diagram for under $100. Without needing an engineering degree.

I still need to gather the Tail light, spot light, and battery.

I like the idea of a DC/LED lighting overhaul for under $100!

This is a cheap tail light, and it has a brake, and license plate light on it! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Smoke-Lens-...prg=20131017132637&rk=3&rkt=4&sd=171304132848

This is what I used for a tail light.>> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Oval-4-Red-...Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a7a6862f0&vxp=mtr

I was thinking along the lines of this.
