Hmmmm

the MicroDE have a 55w bulb (from memory) so thats 110w load on the bike. I recall from another post that the power budget is close to that, so you need to be running your bike a while without them on (after all, legally, you should only use them in adverse weather, but it would be a brave plod who decided to do yuo for 'being seen' on a bike).

It takes around 20 minutes of riding (not ticking over) to replace the drain on the battery from starting the bike.....

Alternativly, fit an optimate/batterymiser/trickly charger thing - if I've been on a short run <20 mins the lights on the optimate are usually two bars down.... only takes an hour before the battery is tickety boo.

Perhaps some more investigations into a Stator upgrade, I mentioned it in the Ask Kev section a week or so back.
