Well I don't think people run their lights all the time, but good point, I'm not too familiar with technology of stators like I am aftermarket alternators. I do believe the stock stator operates at full capacity or close to it, when the lights are on, does it not?

I think it does if the stator is truely at 60watts. They may over wire it a bit to keep it from overheating. It's just like the example of small wire and a big stator you gave except the small wire is on the stator with a stock one and being maxed out with 110 watts wanted. The higher watt bulb is less resistance and what makes the stator work harder and warmer. It's like trying to run 2ohm speakers on a 4ohm amp so I'm not sure you can't damage the stator. Did you talk to Ricky or someone else there.
