dmfisher71 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Posted April 25, 2012 curious what voltage does the stator put out to the rectifier to run the headlights... 12 volts i assume...please correct me if i am wrong Quote
sheerider1026 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Posted April 25, 2012 there is no rectifier.. just a voltage regulator.. 12-14v AC.. u can dloat the ground on the stator and ad a rectifier to convert to 12v dc if you like Quote

Coupelx Posted April 25, 2012 Report Posted April 25, 2012 the stator is capable of 40+ vAC if unregulated. Quote
So Cal Suspension Posted April 25, 2012 Report Posted April 25, 2012 the stator is capable of 40+ vAC if unregulated. Correct. Typically an unregulated stator puts out 37-40VAC at WOT, 7-9VAC at idle. Quote
dmfisher71 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Posted April 26, 2012 Correct. Typically an unregulated stator puts out 37-40VAC at WOT, 7-9VAC at idle. thats cool i just need to know how i convert it from ac to dc current.. the lights i have are 12 volt dc Quote
erickson483 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Posted April 26, 2012 Use the search!!! AC to DC conversion is a little involved. However, since I'm a nice guy I found you this for you. http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=92899&st=0&p=800737&hl=+conversion%20+&fromsearch=1entry800737 Quote

Yea it is pretty cool when you forget that you un hooked the regulator and you give it a rev with the headlights on. Nothing like having a set of PIAA H6M Bulbs going off like one time use Flash Bulbs. Quote
