For our cars this is true and totally agree, but they sell these for more modern cars where the systems require resistance in the system to not just run the flasher but to also notify the system that there is a bulb. Example my 99 chevy requires a small load
for the cruise control to work without it the ECU disable cruse found this out on a long trip to pick up a trailer and, on the way, back the cruise control worked because of the added load of the bulbs on the trailer of which were not there on the way to get
it.</div>

There are also electronic flashers that eliminate the need for the resistor and are sold to fit all the different old style systems out there. SBLED sells one I believe. </div>

Unfortunate and silly to waste power in a resistor just so you can install <br>
power saving LEDs. I suspect this mod ends up using more power in the <br>
end, making the whole effort expensive AND pointless. Hope you didn't have <br>
to go down that hole.<br>
