Is there a way to run a HID setup off a sled that doesn't have a battery? My understanding is that the Polaris XLT I have runs AC into the headlight, and the voltage sags a lot at idle.
Yeah! Those dark scenes make my spine buzz! I'm climbin the walls already! The upshot reflector in the onlooking helmet shot tells me you setup for the climb! It's all great! LOL!
My only question if this was totally redneck is the other light of the pair is still on your commuter car?
Great idea, now I know what i'm doing when I get home.![]()
Hi Guys Its Darryl from Cyclops Motorsports.
I thought I might be able to Shed some light on this subject. (Pun intended)
A helmet light is a great option for those riding at night. No matter what company it comes from, You will have a better time and ride faster, harder and safer with a helmet mounted light system. Cyclops Lifetime warranties its Halogen products, available in 35 or 50 watts, battery powered or you can run them from your machines ac or dc power.They are made from a rubber compound that makes them tough to break. There are alot of Mod sled guys who use the 50 watt version as there only light source. We also have HIDs at a reasonable cost. You can not run an HID from a sled that has no battery even if you add a reg/ rect. The low power spikes will turn the light off. If your considering a single mr11 type HID dont bother, There great for your bicycle but thats about it. Sleds travel much to fast for such a small amount of light.We now have a 30 watt HID version available as well
Feel free to give me a call
Hey Darryl - what kind of "Snowest special deal" can you offer us for the dual battery pack, 50 watt and a dual charger?![]()
Do any of you non-vendor guys have practical experience with HID versus Halogen setups? No offense to the vendors, but they all claim their products are best.
I'm leaning towards the combination spot/flood beam setup at http://trailtech.net/helmet_light_kits.html but that's a lot of scratch to drop for something you can't test out ahead of time.
