battery powered lights theory

[crusty4365]

heres my theory

cut wiring harness until you separate all lighting wires and lighting power wirse bla bla...

then cut the wires
splice them to a new set of wire and keep them connected to the regular ligting wires as intended in the SAME splice

ok so now u have a group of wires that go from the stator to a splice that breaks off in 2 directions.

one is going to the lights
and the newly sliced in wires are just hangin for now

then take a ride on mower batery, (i will do some research on batteries and find one that has a limiter that shuts off the charging process once the maximum capacity is reached)

ok so connect the ride on mower battery to the 2 wires you just hacked onto ur wire harness

then do a double splice againnnn that way your new wire is cut and has a wire coming off of that!

then connect the newly spliced wires from the middle of the previously spliced new set of wires, to the middle of the regular wires that are on their way to the lights....

now you have a paralel circuit...

my theory is that in combination with a high wattage stator liek the 75 watt from ricky stator, you can run the lights, and charge a batery at the same time.

now when u turn off the stator (letting off the throttle and leting the engine die off) you have no power? NO you made a paralel circuit and now the lights continue to shine bright even tho the engines off... this is cuz the batery is still completeing the circuit despite the fact the engines off... then next time you turn on the quad you charge the lights up then the batterys limitor will stop the charging (preventing the batery from exploding) once you charge the batery fully....

so this lets you run your lights even tho the quad is off
it also lets you get to reuse ur batery (by charging it off of the higher wattage stator)

this means after you shut off the quad you will be forced to turn the light switch off or else ul kill the batery.



do you guys under stand my theory or should i get sum pics up? (poorly drawn pics) i dont have money to try it yet and i want to see what you guys think.

you can't just send a battery voltage....

it has to come from a battery charger.

batteries need to be pulse charged. and also... the charer will vary in amps forced to the battery and voltage, depending on what the battery is asking for.

so....in short... you can not charge a battery directly off a stator. period.

yeah i dont think the stator would charge it.im sure there is some damn way u could do it though just think harder

suprex you seem like a smart guy i think we can figure this one out i never thought ud ever say sumthing isnt possible on a blaster lol

didnt someone come up with the elec start idea? they are hard at work on that
didnt another guy tell us how to make a blaster go in reverse? and it would work if someone really wanted it to?

this forums got tons of great ideas they just have to get the kinks worked out

reverse was once just a theory, and now it is possible
elec start is on its way to being possible!
lets make battery powered lights work!I:I

gime some ideas mann!!

oh, i never said you can't charge a battery on a blaster... just said you can't directly from a stator.

if you can find a battery charger that runs off 12volts you are in business.

pretty ghetto, but that's all you would need to add to your idea.

of course...you need a charger correctly mated to your battery. (ampere rating).

you can do it!

thanks il update you on any progress i make... now that you gave me the missing link i can tell my dad and then he can check all the voltages and that stuff (hes an electrition or sumthin not a mechanic) so then he can then show all the data to his friend thats a mechanic and the mechanic will add his bit and then il get all the info back and i will do it and hopefuly it will work

if anyone has any ideas to add please do theres tons of missing links in this chain so fill me in if you catch anything.

This would be awesome. Also someone said something about electric start....whats up with that?
