[QUOTE="69ST, post: 185414, member: 5"] I would think that using different bulbs would be a crude-but-effective test methodology. Automotive headlight bulbs are commonly 55-65W. I wouldn't try using one, for real, due to the heat they generate. But a short-duration test should tell you a lot before anything (like the wiring inside your HL shell) can be cooked. If you're getting 55W, then powering-up a 65W bulb should pull charging voltage well below 12.8V. [/QUOTE]
