Thank you for posting this. I knew LogoLites was not the brand I had used, but I could not remember the brand. As soon as I saw the website, I recognized it. The #: 87455 is is the ones I used in one of my Ts and my A. My 1915 only had single filament mag lights so I used one of the LED bulbs that only had the one contact.

The low beam still blinks and the bright continues to be fine.
I e-mailed Logo today, no response yet.
Short in the driver that runs be bulb?

Excellent point on the flicker.

A special thanks to Ian at Creating Connections (Logo Lites) in Duluth, Georgia. I sent my flickering LEDs back to them last week. After a couple of troubleshooting discussions over the phone, he sent me 2 new lights. I installed them today and they’re fine, no more flickering or blinking. It’s really nice to deal with such helpful folks. .... .....(To JKY, apparently it wasn’t a “short in the driver that runs the bulb”)
