Maybe you could tell us what light you actually have.
Have you tried them on a different vehicle/battery/power supply? |

Are they wired to the battery, or did you tap off of some other hot wire? Sounds like you tapped into a line that is not 12v and the lights are not getting enough power.

Some older and foreign bikes use 5v batteries.
Also, check to make sure you have a good ground. |
