finally getting around to installing the lamps and computer. the original battery in the "gift box" still has 3.2v! see how long that lasts cuz there aint no 2302's up here. i got it all sussed but what the heck is this thing? a resistor/suppressor for the lamps? a spare tail lamp bulb in heat shrink tubing? a slow match? an old shark egg?
thanks boys. holy crap it got HOT when i lit the candle after mock-up ! i idled it for a couple mins then pulled the plug on the whole deal. hey Wally can i bypass this junk and just plug into the yellow lead from the volt regulator w/o zapping the lamps? i sure don't want this anywhere near my tank, it got so hot some snot or glue started to ooze out of the heat shrink tubing. maybe you can machine me up a trick finned alloy heat sink to slip it into...oh yeh! if not im gona mount it way out in the wind somewhere. with what i dont know, zip tie will just melt. what a retarted thing this is!
Thought another part of the question was "got it all sussed" and asking what sussed might mean this month. :-) Being an old guy, I thought it might mean sorted or washed or tied or figured out
well....here goes....i mounted it to the hose clamp "tail" so it's sort of in the breeze. i think a test braap round the block is in order before going out on the trail.
Was it supplied with the lamp kit? The goo was probably the glue in tge heatshrink mealting, i put a clone of ridgid industrys led on my wr360 lasted a few rides poped diode #2 solderd another on then put a capacitor on to smooth out the pulsing.. Umm its blown again an thought that aint right i thought this things regulated d/c nope its regulated a/c only incandessent bulbs for me What am i to answer the shark egg thing? Easy open the heat shrink up an take a look.
Hmmm.... yup it was supplied with the gift box... and the bike already has a regulator so...kinda odd. you was posed to answer what "sussed" meant...that's a brit saying my pal from london says it...he also says some other really weird things and after a few pints i cant understand crack-all what he's saying, then he wants ta fight! lol...
sooo...i guess i did it right....i guess. its in the breeze now...if it melts down it'll really be in the breeze after i stuff it down the tube of my 12ga pump!
