[QUOTE="allenp42, post: 183833, member: 8785"] The seller said he tests the [U]lighting coil[/U] with a 25 watt 12v bulb. He did [U]not[/U] mention testing battery charging. I'm sure the lighting circuit works [I]works[/I] with a 25w/12v bulb works, but that pretty much confirms the mitsu kit is not plug and play on a CT70. He is going to try to source a coil that is correct for a CT70. Honestly, not sure if he makes these or if they are a replacement for an older model used in Malaysia? In the last few months, several different sellers in Malaysia are offering what appears to be the same kit? This dilemma would have been super frustrating to resolve if actually installed on a bike. Also, I did run across a schematic for an older C70 (I think) that does [U]not[/U] use a battery. The yellow wire supplies power for the HL & TL and the green wire just for small lamps. That may explain where the coil for that odd Mitsu stator I have is used. A standard OEM Mitsu lighting coil appears to fit just fine. This will work, but I was really hoping for a brighter HL like I see on OLD CT's video (Hitachi setup). The seller is being very accommodating and is willing to issue a partial refund. I'll probably give him a few days to see what he finds out on a "better coil" before I take this offer. [/QUOTE]
