#101308 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 9490 Re:current loss 1 Month ago   dmfarms wrote: so would this be sufficient to run two extra lights under my floors, cause i really hate gettin stranded... Let's repeat again .... The 1600 and 1700 have different charging systems, with the 1700 being more robust. With the way you have your 1600 set up, the additional load that you propose will drain your battery if you run both running lights and floorboard lights at the same time.

So, does that mean the '05 and older are producing LESS than 300 watts @ 5K RPM...? That's not a lot!   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/07/18 09:04 By StarCruiser06.   Over 50...?

What changes can I make to the charging system to do this without having to trickle charge each night.

They started in 05 with the stronger system.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #101337 Papa Bear (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 91 Re:current loss 1 Month ago   DOC, thank you O Great Wizir (Wiser, Wisier, MFWIC,???).

If you have passing lights with 55 watt bulbs replace them with 35 watt, PIAA has high intensity 35 watt bulbs which have the light out put of 70 watts.
