No a diode is still required to function everything. The amp draw is too light for the ATen circular security system, proaer, light pad. We just dont recall the diode size.
if you just add the LED lights the incandescent bulb will still draw the load needed to set the activate the onboard system.Practice Angling CPRCatchPictureRelease2010 PIV 200SHO
if you install enough LED lights you might get the current draw needed for the systems to work properly.Check the specs on the strip lighting your using. You might need to install a strip on all four sides or more to equal the draw from the one little incandescent light bulb. Thats why everything is going to LED lights.
