Thanks! I just picked up 2 relays and a new switch. I am going to run 1 relay for each set of lights to take the load of my switch...as you said. Also, I will upgrade my lighting wire to a 12 gauge wire connected to the output on the stator, to the relays, and the new switch. Hopefully this will prevent me from frying another stator.....!

What about installing a fuse just out of the stator? That way it would blow the fuse instead of killing the stator? If so, what size should I use...15 volts? Maybe this does the same as a relay? I don't have any experience with relays...what do they do?

Thanks for the tip. I will take a closer look at my harness..... Any recommendations on a switch to use for the bigger lights? What more would I need for a DC conversion....a battery and a rectifier? I don't want to spend a ton more money.....

I have a stage III port from Trinity. My bikes runs AWESOME in Glamis. Night and day against a stock bike!!! Best upgarde I have done to my bike by far.... I went to Trinity because they are local for me in southern California....

I am just running more lights on my current stock wiring harness. No DC conversion. Just 4 Trail Tech lights 2(35) and 2 (50) watts. I haven't checked my voltage regulator. Don't I need voltage coming out of the stator to test if the regulator is working, or is there another way to test the regulator? I guess I could swap in my stock one to see if there is a difference.

I am running a RS 200w stator with a RS upgraded flywheel and voltage regulator with 2 (35w) + 2 (50w) Trail Tech lights. I have had the same problem twice now. Install everything, bike runs great, lights work fine. Go for a ride.....lights stop working. Measure the voltage output directly out of the stator (yellow wire) and I get about 1.28 volts.... According to RS, it should be in the 20-40 volt range at full thottle. When I remove the stator, it looks like it got pretty hot. The whole stator is covered in a brown-ish color substance..... I think this is what is preventing it from out-putting the correct voltage. The brown substance is acting as an insulator or something.... Wondering if there is something I may be overlooking, or if any of you have experienced similiar issues, and what you may have done to correct it. I've read all the threads on RS for the banshee, but I don't see anything with this detail. I am on my second stator now. Shipping it back tomorrow for a replacement. The people at RS have been very helpful and have given me replacements, but I would like to get to the root of the problem to prevent it from happening again. I don't like spending hundreds on a lighting setup and having the lights not work..... Any help is appreciated.

Cool. Thanks.

Do these work on a banshee without a battery? Website says they only work for a 12 volt system. Does the stator put out 12V....haven't checked my RS with a volt meter... http://www.radlites.com/billet_mount.htm

Cool...thanks. I'll look into it.

I have the IMS Desert tank on my shee. Are there any stickers / graphic kits that will stick to it? Im not sure if there are, since the tank breathes, which is why the stickers fall off... Let me know if anyone has had any luck with this.... Just looking for something to dress up my ride a little....
