RX-1 Electrical Question

[Bob Miller]

How much electrical capacity does the Warrior have left over to run accessories? I tried a Gerbing heated jacket last year in Canada on my 700 Deluxe and it was a very warm feeling especially on that one day when the temperature was -23 degrees, but I found out the hard way the 700's elec system could not handle it! :roll: When I went to restart it, well that one had a pull starter.
The jacket requires 70 watts when turned all the way up!
I was wondering if the Warrior does not have enough left over capacity to handle the jacket could I disconnect one of the headlights :idea: That's 55 watts right there 8)

OK give me your feedback, I would appreciate it :shock:

Bob, There should be enough room on the back of that warrior to strap a generator on! Then you could have heated pants and boots as well as the jacket.

40 WATTS is what the 2003 RX1 had left for accesories. If the CDI is the same for the Warrior which it is...that's what you have to work with. Actually this information can also be found on the CD Service Manual which by the way was sent to you today. :wink:

Thanks RXWonder, I appreciate that! If I only have 40 watts to play with and I unplug one of those 55watt headlights when the cold moves me to do so that should work! What do you say? :roll:
