LED Light Bar installation


Recommended Posts

05 Banshee with stock stator. I currently have 6.5w (each light) mr16 leds in trail tech housings mounted at the factory headlight locations. Tonight I ordered a 10" 40w led bar to mount either on the bars or front bumper somewhere. 2 questions....

 

1. Is the stock stator powerful enough to power all lights mentioned?

 

2. Can I just splice in the light bar to the current power source/wiring that is feeding the stock headlights? I've been reading about maybe needing a battery or rectifier but not sure what to do.

 

Thanks

1.Stock stator is good to about 75W, so you're fine.

 

2. Yes, but ideally no.  At the very least a small bridge rectifier will keep the leds from burning out (bike leads to AC, +- to leds) . Or get a DC conversion from JD http://www.jdscustoms.com/product/jl-engineering-complete-dc-conversion-kit/

 

But everything has been discussed recently so search around.
