ohSIXshee Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 I know stock stator is 100 watts. I have trail tech lights i got used but they have 50 watt bulbs. If I ditch the tail light will that work? Or should I buy a set of 35s? Sent from my Samsung Note 3 using Tapatalk Quote
Glenyboy Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 Stock stator is just over 70 watts, so get the 35's. Or do the dc conversion and run LEDs, you'll get more light for less power. If you want though, get the 35w tt's then do the conversion at a later date and put led bulbs in the tt's Quote
Glenyboy Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 Sorry I just re-read you post you won't need newer lights just change the bulbs to 35w, but I'd still advise led bulbs and a dc conversion for max output Quote
Strm Trpr Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 So, let me get this straight, do a DC conversion, Trail Tech Stock Mount Lights w/LED Bulbs and you're good to go? Quote
Glenyboy Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 If you have the mr16 bulbs yes as they are the same as household bulbs. 10w led bulbs will give you over 50w worth of light. Quote
ohSIXshee Posted November 21, 2013 Author Report Posted November 21, 2013 I meant the bulbs...do I need actual "trail tech" bulbs or can I just get em at home depot or lowes? Sent from my Samsung Note 3 using Tapatalk Quote
Glenyboy Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Get the ones from the hardware store Quote
ohSIXshee Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Posted December 10, 2013 Went out to glamis last Thursday till sunday. Wow those trail tech lights are worse than stock. What a waist of time. Sent from my Samsung Note 3 using Tapatalk Quote
Starwriter Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 Did you try to run those 50 watt bulbs with a stock stator? If so, that's not Trail Techs fault. People told you it wouldn't work. Quote
Glenyboy Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 As mentioned above you won't get the full potential out of the bulb, and most probably be pitting out less than stock. You'd of been better running 35w until you have a bigger stator or until you do a dc conversion and run led bulbs. Quote

mhoksch Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 I got some 10w led dimmable mr16 bulbs online. Only ridden twice with them but they seem great so far. Sent from my XT901 using Tapatalk now Free Quote
ohSIXshee Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Posted December 10, 2013 I bought actual "trail tech" bulbs 35 watt. Junk. Sent from my Samsung Note 3 using Tapatalk Quote
trickedcarbine Posted December 11, 2013 Report Posted December 11, 2013 ^then that would be trail techs fault! Quote
