  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

250-500cc Headlight beta

The 09 250 and 300 have a 55w stator so you can calculate the amps

You won't achieve max output at idle and keep in mind that the ignition and other lights are drawing a couple of amps. I believe the stock headlight is 35 watts

Edit; I tried to look up the stator output in the manual and I couldn't find it. I remember being told 55 but not sure if that was amps or watts which is a big difference.

A 55 amp stator would have to be the size of a car alternator, so it's safe to assume it's watts.

Most car alternators put out over 100 amps. I would like to know what it actually is capable of. My stock headlight on my 09 wr250 would dim at idle and according to the manual only required 35 watts which at 14 volts is about 4 amps. The later model Ducati ignition is even less powerful.
 
Thanks guys. I broke the housing on my Polisport HMX dual led light. I was thinking of trying H4. Might just stick with the LED since they don't dim. Thanks
 
FYI 55 amps, to convert to watts multiply by volts
55 amps is 660 watts
55 watts divided by 12 volts would be 4.58 amps, what you would find on a dirt bike
i take power to make electricity, look up the KW-HP conversion
