Flasher for LED’s without using a Resistor?

[KR66]

Is there a Flasher that will work with LED bulbs without the use of a Resistor? I have been looking for a Electronic flasher that will work in My 01 Yukon my only reason is because the use of a Resistor kinda defeats the purpose of the led pulling less power! The only benefit is the life span of the LED bulbs! I replaced every light except the headlights with LEDs! I don’t like how warm the Resistors get and if one fails the leds start flashing rapidly like a bulb went out! So my question is does anyone make a Electronic Flasher for LED bulbs? I have been searching for a couple months and can’t find one that fits the Yukon that says it work with leds without a Resistor.
Thanks

Yes they make them. But the benefits of the LED's is their light output. Why do you care how much electricity you're saving, it's not like you get a power bill every month for your car lighting lol. Also, I've never heard of a load resistor burning out. You'll still need one on the brake lights if you want the cruise to work.

I like saving power for camping no need to start the truck for 3 days starts right up when I'm leaving.

Ok, but the load resistors are on the turn signals and I'm pretty sure you don't leave your flashers on for 3 days, right? The resistors are only meant to stop hyperflashing and only for a short time. The only other place they would be used for is brake lights so the cruise control works and the same thing gies- brake lights are never on for too long.

I'll give you that but the resistors also pull that extra power anyway the flasher unit wont

Its the load on the electrical system I'm trying to save I know it's not that much but alternators do wear out faster from the loads put on them, maybe not the mechanical part but the regulator and such why not benefit from this as much as possible? Also say I break down somewhere and need to use my 4 Ways and interior lights (the interior won't use much power but) the battery will last days without the resitorrs and I can still start the engine! I have gotten a flat in my 30+ years ( or some other breakdown) of driving where I had to walk hours to get a part only to have a dead battery and needing to hope to get a jump start or pay a road service $50+ to get a jump start! This was my second resonr for going to leds there drain on the system is minor compared to incadesincan bulb's the resistors negates there benefit. (I broke down in Wyoming once took 18 hours to get help and had a dead battery by that time no matter what I did to try and save power! I could have been hit at 4am without flashers because of my location ) no nobody wanted to help I had to walk to a ranch miles away to call for help my cell didn't have service where I was!

4Way flashers can be on for hours and will run down a battery.

The 4ways can be on for hours and my cruse works fine with out a resistor! They are separate bulb's no need for the resistors! The switch for the Cruse brake is on the petal on my Yukon I replaced the brake light bulbs first (no resistor) and the Cruse control has worked fine since! The brake light bulbs have nothing to do with the Cruse operation what if the bulbs burn out does the cruise stop working right? I have never seen that happen!

It doesn't affect the Cruse I have separate brake and turn bulbs and no resistors on the brake lights! My cruze has been working fine for over 2 years with LEDs and no resitorsr! The signal for tbe cruise on a GMC is on the brake pedal it's a separate circuit from the actual brake lights! You can. Remove the brake bulbs and your cruise should still work unless some new cars like hybrids and such have a odd system in place? But that would be stupid IMHO what if the bulbs are out? You won't be able to disengage the cruze with the brakes? That's a serious liability for the manufacturer.
