I see that the 01 has a 280 magneto.
I have a 55w/100w main light
8w/27w 1127 tail light
So with with high beams on and no brakeing..
108 watts
I want to put on 2 additional side lites like the Baja but I want to run 55w bulbs.

110 (sides) 100 (Main High) 8 (brake) = 218 & 237 braking would be with EVERY thing running.
That leaves 43 watts. Is this sufficient to run the ignition and charge the battery??
I dont want to over load it... What does it take to run the system with everything off??

 

This was posted on another forum (I think by Ripper, he works for bomb)

the Baja regulator can hold 360 watts but the motor put out only 290 watts at 6000 rpm minus 125 watts for elect. components (e-box ,relay,brk light,fan)=165watts available for completely new lightening.

Take note that a DS will not produce 290 watts at low rpm's, you also have a 100 watt high beam so you need to consider the additional 35 watts as added lighting
I'm a electrician by trade and personaly I wouldn't load it past 80% of max in order to insure long life, I would guess that bomb has some fudge factor in there too but don't know how much

 

So if I get dual 35 watts, then only run them on lows I shoud get

55 ( Low ) 70 ( new lights) 125 (system) 8 (Tail light) = 258

Is that safe??

With everthing on it would be 303 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Wow, that is a ton 125 just for sthe system...

 

If I read your post right you will be all right, the 125 includes the brake light and running the high beam, so 125 (stock system) + 70 (new lights) + 35 (higher wattage high beam)=230 (worst case max) if your only running the new lights on low beam it's 195 your OK, in fact you could use them on high beam and it should be OK
Side note the Baja regulator has a higher wattage rating than a regular DS, unfortunatly the wireing connector is slightly different
