[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 139413, member: 21"] 3600 lumens? It's a decent start. The HID retrofit is good for about 2900 quick and easy lumens. I had about somewhere between 4000 and 4500 on my old XR. Do you really need a stator or do you just need the float the ground and a DC reg so all the lighting power is DC. Beta uses the KTM style electrical system so I just did that well known mod. The best current LED's are just over 100 lumens per watt. HID a little less at 85 or so. Halogen is 27 and those wonderful 25 or 35 watt incandescent's are a wimpy 20 lumens per watt. That BD light should only need 35 to 40 watts. Most bikes with any kind of stock lighting can power that. After 3000+ lumens on the bike it's time fro a helmet light. [/QUOTE]
