They have different models for different bikes/uses. Check the website. I am curious about your statement "then you might have a savings". How could it be off 50% and not have a savings? ----- Original Message ----- From: paul annen To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 4:41 PM Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Reduced current flow with headlight modulator.
so there system is 50% highbeam then 50% nothing??? then you might have a savings over lowbeam depending on your setup...

If low beam selected, no modulation is done, thus full current. An ambient light sensor needs to be added that causes it to modulate during high light ambient (daylight) but not during low light ambient (night). In the daylight if you want it to modulate, use the high beams. If not, use the low beams. Mine will modulate high beam in the daylight outside, but not if in the garage. Pretty well thought out. ----- Original Message ----- From: paul annen To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 3:59 PM Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Reduced current flow with headlight modulator. ummmmm if i am correct this device switches between the low and high beam correct??? high beam draws more amps then low.... therefore if the device is a 50% duty cycle and you normaly drive with low beams during daytime then your consumption would be GREATER then normal.... i still think it is a good safety add on, but i doubt that you will save any power....

Seems as if it would as it is no longer on continuously. As the owner of a bike with limited charging capacity it would be another plus.

The duty cycle is 50% so during daytime hi-beam would use half the current. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
