Over engineering??????
I have been playing with my bike lots to stupid amounts but my lights still suck!
There was the diode bridge rectifier hooked up to my NZ$3 led headlamp, it then became 2 headlamps with old cell ph batteries it was close but not quite there. Its brightness just didnt quite cut it at max speed when there was the tiniest bit of fog rain etc and I am required to have a tail light now. The batteries also caught fire when someone kindly turned off my lights at the library while parked, i just started riding without something to use the power the lithium polymer batteries um got real hot. lithium polymers dont like extra charging.
So options
1. It is crazy that the odd person notices that the light runs off the engine and is amazed they think its awesome. However I had better lights much better and they were not quite good enough.
2. I am tempted just for the experience but well the voltage drop is as high as 3 volts sometimes, I only have a DMM but this is crazy considering the most i have seen come put of the white wire is 7.96 volts and that was with it ringing out to the limit of engine vibration i can handle while riding top speed.
3. Must do who cares about voltage drop if my diodes are lighting, comments pointers please. I dont think all the voltage drop is a consideration and near as i can tell reverse breakdown voltage in leds is more than enough for what our white wire provides when chosen correctly. Has anyone tried this i have seen reference to it but not a mention of any one trying for real, will leftover electron flow be enough to charge a battery/
4. This is one of the over engineered options but im doing it just because i think its cool and it shouldn't cost much anyway that voltage drop can mean so much more if you are into the extra electrical mile. http://www.thetaeng.com/FETBridge.htm

5. Oh YEAHHH!!!!! how to combine that aftermarket add in coil idea with the standard coil to make a 3 phase magneto then mosfet bridge rectifier and dc-dc digital cdi If only . if i did figure this out would totaly sell this along with my imaginary fuel injection for the ht engine.
Anybody have any other solutions i got an awesome aeg battery drill with dead batteries !

So options
- Continue using dolphin torch with incandescent bulb wired directly to white wire
- Expand on old diode bridge rectifier circuit and use some zeners and caps to stop fire
- Make Light Emitting Diode bridge rectifier and dump leftover electron flow to battery for tail light
- Mosfet Bridge Rectifier for real low voltage drop
- Build total electrics from scratch including rectifier for both coils and dc-dc cdi.
