Can Incandescent and LED Bulbs Be Mixed To Stop Hyper-Flashing

Question:

Can I put a amber side maker incandescent light in the front of my motorcycle trailer to act a a turn /brake light to stop my hyper flashing. I have the MC65AB with 2 wire plug on hand and bracket. The problem is that I have all Bargeman led rear lights and led side maker lights and I just got hyper flashing with my CVO Limited. I dont have any place to put resistors inside trailer due to the heat.

If you were to install the Optronics Incandescent Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Light part # MC65AB inline with the stop/turn signal lights on your trailer that could then allow the system to draw enough power to stop the hyper-flash but there would be no way for me to confirm this, you would just need to give it a try. Also, this is a single function light so it would blink with the turn signals and then stay illuminated when the brakes are depressed.

If you can confirm the trailer connector you are using I may have another option for you.
