I doub't you can fit the standard flasher/blinker into your helmet.

 

But you can try using a 555 timer, should be compact enough to fit behind your cushions. Then you can power your LEDs using a button cell battery.

if you are refering to the type of relays used on the signal lights, its called a condenser

Hmm, actually i found another way is using a IC chip.. those small rectangle chip that's flat, you just connect the wiring to the points then you get a blinking LEDs, i did it already.. but the problem is fixing up the whole thing in my helmet.. all can fix up.. only problem is where to place the switch?

 

iVy: i went there that day wanted to ask... but saw the shop packed with humans, walk in breathe the air, look see, i went off..

i have uploaded my video for you guys to see.. haha nth professional/special.. just some dumb fellow's work..

15-20+ was the price i was told about,+ if 1 them to do for u in a circuit board with LEDs,=$40:giddy:

ya, i heard the price is ard $40...

[kurarensu]

$40? y so ex? if ask dem do what they use? maybe u can get this idea/parts den DIY? save $..

[ET]

theirs is all those got brand one ler...

[Limsteel]

there is alternating LED DIY kit...

Brand: Future kit

Name: 2 LED FLASHER

Kit number: FK109

http://www.futurekit.com/images/products/mini/fk109.jpg

 

cost $3 only... instead of using their LED... extend the wire out from the board to the LED in your ****... then use a 9V batt to power your Circuit!

where to get? got pics?

[Limsteel]

funny, I attached a pic but didn't show up... just go to SimLim Towers... most of the hobby shop there sell DIY circuit board...

 

You can buy individual components cheaper but YOU MUST KNOW the each and every component spec. or get those Future kit everything already pack nicely just open follow the picture and solder.

 

I bought a few to play around when I want to replace my signal relay (LED signal blinking too fast with original signal relay)
