Default G2 headlight issue

just mounted a gtw led headlight on my g2.
used a universal 9 pin light harness.
used a turnsignal kit that plugged in.
all wired direct to the battery with fuses.

everything works fine, but after about 2 minutes
sitting not running the light starts to strobe on and off slowly with a pause each time.
if I am driving it, it starts to strobe very fast at full throttle and if I lift it will stop stay solid and then strobe fast again. until I stop then flash slowly.

seems to be maybe charging circuit related?
running a 12v car sized battery, never a issue starting or running.

I don't know how the charge circuit works.

kind of lost on where to start really?
monitor the battery volts while running?

Just a follow up in case anyone else has issues.

the problem was the light itself.
I bought it from buggies unlimited.
they warrantied it and sent me another 1. the replacement lasted 1 hour!
it completely quit working.
I returned both for a full refund and bought a Rhox brand light GT-109L.
wiring was different but it mounted up and works!

Led lights require some kind of a converter, usually built into the light kits circuitry. I've found that cheap Chinese made led lights will often do this, usually the "non branded" ones. My take on this is that the cheap lights are made in a factory where people don't really care about quality and you get a "hit or miss" quality with them. I've seen this in golf cart lights, trailer lights, car headlights, and landscape lights.
