I guess what I really want to get across is I know what I want to do I just don't know or understand the formulas/ numbers , I have 200w ac from the coil going to a rectifier then regulator to the battery pack / s to a switch to the lights max 170w, my question is will one of these...

The bike does NOT have a battery... I am adding that system to it. rick

mgb thanks for the quick reply, I do not need any storage , just running the lights when the motor in running, and am I correct in saying that if I run 2 battery packs in parallel it will cut the draw for the individual pack in half? Rick

Ok , thanks for the replies BUT I guess I am not asking the question correctly. I will try again. I have an off road bike, I have an aftermarket upgraded coil 200W, I will be adding 80w of lights and some led signals maybe 160w of lights if I feel the need to double the headlights, I have NO...

Would a capacitor be a better idea? Rick

Ok then I guess I have a 2 part question are the RC type batteries stacked up to 12v going to have a problem with the 200w input from the coil thru the rectifier? and am I going to have problems drawing that amount from those batteries? Rick

Ok , sorry but I understood about half of your reply, how do I figure the current draw? I will be running 4 20 watt lights (80w) and some led's (not much draw). rick

I am in the middle of a project, building an on road bike from an off road model and I am to the electrical system the coil I am getting is 200w I will be running probably 80w of lights and some led signals maybe 160w of lights if I feel the need to double the headlights , anyway my Question...
