sweet, do you have them hooked into the stator?

How many LED you running total? Just asking cause I run about 4 or 5 LED's off of a 9.6v rc battery mounted under my seat.. I can actually use lights with the shee turn off.. They last about 3 day on just one charging...

 

Just something to think about not trying to critsize your work... just a tip..

 

 

 

:shootself:

damn I just read the post above sorry..

I looked into the dc conversion myself when I was trying to figure out how to recharge a battery, ended up not doing the conversion...

 

(one of these days I'll learn to read the whole thread before posting)

A 9 volt with this setup would be horrible, these are 2 very high power , Blue LEDs and 2 Red LEDs...it would probably last a whole 10 minutes...So yea I hooked them to the stator int his vid, no battery..The led light illuminating the already light garage is no exageration. (9volt batteries have hardly any capacity) Normal LED's draw hardly any power though. best thign is they are not fragile like neons and don't draw as much power as well as have a longer burn time (Longer than the bike will last)..

 

Charging the battery should not be an issue. I just bought the Trailtech voltage rectifier to replace the regulator. The driver I created is very simple, I could use much more efficient drivers for a little more money, but since the battery I purchased is large and only used for the lighting and recharges as I ride, I don't see much of a need for high efficiency, I can always change it later...

 

Plan to run 4 30 watt HIDs asap.
