08' FZ6-N Led Bulb Shutting off

[unchiusm]

Hey there !

This is my first post here and I'm in need of some help from you guys

Basically , I've ran into a little problem . I changed out the stock bulb for a H4 LED Lightbulb on my FZ6 , everything was fine until after about 5 minutes of usage when the LED shut off and started flickering while it was very dim . I tought it was a problem with the bulb so I talked to the seller and he sent me another one .

I installed it , made sure that there is plenty of space for the fan to get air and after about 2 -3 mins of running it shut off again.

The wiring on my bike hasn't been messed with so I was thinking maybe I need to add another resistor or I read on the internet that swithing out the current light fuse for a +5 amp one would maybe do the trick ?

What do you guys think ?

Thanks alot!

P.S. : I attached a video of the bulb and a picture of the type of LED I have

Generally speaking LEDs use much less current so adding amperage the fuse does not help with the circuit and in fact renders the circuit more at risk if there is a dead short and current goes high up on the harness.
Unfortunately technology today is not up to par with what needs to be done to make LED headlamps viable unless you spend more money for better technology.
If you're FZ6 had a fairing it was not supplied with the normal switching for an H4 lamp. If you're FZ6 was a factory nakedbike it would have the proper switching for a single H4 lamp.
Because there are so many manufacturers of LED headlamps now it would be hard to tell where the problem was if it were a defective LED unit.
I have had some decent experience with failure of LED headlamps including reflector design.

My last experience with LED headlamps resulted in all the power supplies for the LED headlamp being wired defective. In most cases the people selling you a product do not necessarily understand the technology that they're selling you and therefore can't make decisions on whether something is working properly or defective.
