Have you heard of a “CK” socket? It’s a wiring configuration in some 3157 and 7443 size applications that is different from the standard socket. The difference is in the pin configuration on the bulb. If a non-CK compatible bulb is installed in a CK socket, you run the risk of blowing your fuse or damaging the LED bulb itself.

While many suppliers offer “CK” and “non-CK” versions of their products, Diode Dynamics is pleased to offer two bulb models, the HP11 and HP48, which utilize our unique, fully non-polar design. This special design allows our bulbs to be used with both standard and CK wiring configurations. Whether it’s a standard socket or a CK, you’ll never run the risk of using the wrong bulb and shorting the socket. In addition, due to the non-polar design, the bulbs can be installed in any orientation and will still function perfectly.
