Modern Vespa

Hey gang, I am doing a holiday light tour in December with the LASG (Los Angeles Scooter Group) and I wanted to decorate my scoot with some lights. Do you have any recommendations for good lights that will plug into the 12v accessory plug? I have found some online but I really look to the members here for the best advice.

My apologies if this has been asked before, but I did not find it. Thanks!

Personally I'd use the battery powered led lights. Cheap and don't drain the battery.

I "know" that Santa uses battery pack light sets. And he uses blue painters tape to attach te lights so you don't mess up the paint on your sleigh ...I mean scooter!
Ho ho ho

Hmm, I thought Santa used those soft plant ties to attach lights to chrome bits.

I haven't used them, but I'm a fan of these:

I've always used the battery operated strings in the past.

Ha ha, those are fun!

I think that you are all on the same page here and I just ordered some battery operated lights. Easy enough and I wont have to worry about the wear on the battery. I will post pics!

Connect an Inverter. Used this to power the 115v lights on a parade veh once worked great. I don't think you could connect enough mini bulb lights to cause a problem...... yet YMMV

I have some battery powered ones. Haven't used them yet.Thanks for reminding me. Maybe i'll ride Leo in our little country parade this year. I need to figure out how to attach them so they won't scratch the paint. Yes i'm anal. Have fun with them. 8)

I would add keep everything you decorate with away from your headlight. Headlights get very hot, are air cooled and expensive to replace after something gets melted to it.



Best,

Made a robot for halloween with battery operated lights from English Gardens they worked great.

Thanks for the heads (light) up!

I used a couple regular 120V LED strings and connected them through an inverter to the 12V outlet in the pet carrier. I used them quite a bit last season and never had a battery issue. I wrapped them around the seat area and zip-tied them in a few places to keep everything secure.
