Probably not the advice you want to hear but I say ditch the rotating LEDs and go with CA integrated setup or trailer mod + solid bulbs/high intensity LEDs.

Thank you....The stock bulb works fine in the socket,  its  the high intensity rotating LED brake/stoplight bulb that dims after riding a couple of blocks.  I'm think I might have to add a resistor to the circuit, not sure though.
