hello. i'm new to the forum.
i tried 4 different forums, and the usual useless Reddit. no luck.
alright so i have a chinese scooter with a regulator rectifier ( if that bugs you down because tis a vvehicle, lets say i have a solar panel or windmil or whatever producing its power.... ). it produce NO ac only DC ( 7 wire ).
the white wire is unregulated and used for the automatic enricher ( basically a heating element heating wax so it extend or retract a needle ).
people use this wire to power headlights since its a 12v output. i tried, and it blow the bulbs and leds.
after verification ( i should of checked that first... the nosense crap people say sometime............. ) it end up bein unregulated.
so its from 8 to 50+ volts depending on engien rpm.
well, that isnt gonna work out. so i tought maybe they just forget to tell they use automotive relay.
it lasted 2 days. i put one of a better quality, lasted 3 or 4 days.
yup. same. it aint gonna work, voltage goes too high.
so... i need to build ( or buy, its its a decent solution ) a regulator that will regulate to aprox 14 to 15v ( yup automotive/motorcycle electronic equipments says 12v but they're made to run on 14.7v since its the charging system voltage ).
ive found guidance on how to go from 12 to 5v and things like that, but nothing i need.
its gonna run 2 headlight led bulb, and also stop/running lights ( full leds. its 2023 duh ) and underglow led stripe.
i need this so headlight comes on only when engine is running. like it originally was but on AC power.
when i have to work on it, it jsut drain the "way too small original battery of 8ah".
the total amp draw is under 10 amps for sure. probably around 5 or 6, but the only thing i know about electronic is its better to make it support higher amp than needed.
thanks.
