Default How much extra power do I have

I was just curious. I am thinking about mounting some accessories, but I do not want to overload my system. Currently, the only accessory I have is a winch. I am thinking about adding some aux. lights on the front and maybe a work light on the back. The aux lights are 100 watts and the work light is another 55 watts. I would not normally be running both at the same time of course.
If it makes any difference, I have a new RickyStator stator I am putting in. I don't know if it puts out more than stock or not.

Thanks.

I think that as long as you don't have them all on at once, you'd be ok. I never figured up how much I'm drawing, but when I'm plowing, I have my heated hand warmers, heated thumb warmer, rear led strobes, front led light bar, and my headlights, and my winch, all at the same time, and I haven't had any trouble
