10 amps @ 12v nominal is 120watts... that's actually a lot of power for it to be putting out at an idle. Only things that should be consuming that power are your headlight and the ignition box, right?
Just seems high. Headlight's probably no more than 35w, if memory serves correctly (35/55 low/high on a standard halogen bulb? Versus the 55/100 "upgrade" bulbs?), which leaves 85w for the ignition box... -Kurt On Sun, Feb 27, 2011 at 9:37 PM, Stefano Ascari <[email protected]>wrote: > Ok great!
