I have an 87 LT80 that I am installing lights on.I did install a high output stator from Rickstator (1st one failed within 20 minutes of riding.Screws backed out and shredded it-not happy).I wired in the lights to a hot wire from the switch but still seems to draw down the battery while using the lights.Am I wiring this in to the wrong wire?How can I remedy this?

 

Welcome to the ATV Connection forums. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
The wire that you need to tie into is the red/white wire. That's the charging circiut.
Hope that helps. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Thank you but I'm still having problems.I tested voltage on the battery with it running and voltage was climbing nicely past 13 volts.When I tapped in the lights (I'm using a small cheap pair of foglights from a car) they were very dim.If I hooked up directly to the battery they were very bright but my voltage kept going down.Are the foglights too strong and drawing too much voltage/amps?What would work as a better solution to get a bright light at a low cost.Thank you for any help given.

 

I feel that the lights used are taking too much juice. Maybe try just 1 light.
Ricky stator should have the light stuff. ATV Racing in Phoenix has a light kit (atvracing1.com).
