Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 @IanK (Bagpuss) @Chris King - Webmaster and Joint North East AO Going to follow your lead but wondered if you also need the DRL adaptor? Many thanks CeeBee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 @Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO Mine are simply wired to the ignition circuit. Others have had problems with battery chargers and items similar to that you've identified above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhett Turner - Black Country AO Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I fitted a controller that works of the ignition so I don't get the issues associated with current sensing, it also dims the DRLs when I turn on the head lights. It's either this one of very much like it. My DRLs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingster Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I tried a cheap Chinese controller but it failed to work. So I now have my lights wired to ignition circuit instead of permanent live. I hated the way it used to allow lights to be left on without the key in! I set it so when ignition is on the DRLs are on, when lights are on the DRLs are off. Use the savage switch’s double pole functionality for this so not sure how to achieve that with the older switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TableLeg Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I just used a changeover relay. 'Ignition on' for supply to DRL's via relay (30 to 87) then side light feed to coil (86 & 85 ground) to switch relay over and disconnect DRL's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy (Sycho) Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I use a controller similar to the one you have linked to which works ok but the dimming does not work. It makes the drl’s ficker, but that could be the DRL. Mine are on all the time which is not a bad thing with my candle powered dominators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Cheers all, As I am *ahem ‘electrically challenged’ I might try the controller for £6 and see how that goes! Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
