LED's killed my blinkers

I just finished updating a bit of the lighting on the car. I installed LED turn signals and of course got the hyper flash(have not pulled the drl module yet to cut the bulb out tracer). So while driving yesterday, i would lightly use it in traffic to at least signal, and it would hyper. Half way home yesterday, i have no blinkers. Hazards dont work either. I think it blew a fuse, about to check. Will LED's do this? Is it because i had it hyper flashing still? Is there anything i can do to keep this from happening again, or do i need to cary around spare fuses galore?

** So I replaced the fuse and it killed it again. As soon as I tested the hazards(to avoid hyper), it popped the fuse. Is it the bulbs throwing it off?

Another +1 on the resistors. Also, get rid of the DRLs if you haven't already. Those things don't need to be on all the time.
