I need electrical help!

[_brad_]

I'm sick of burning bulbs at higher RPM. I'm thinking of installing a capacitor between both my head light and tail light to filter and absorb any spikes.

Am I crazy?

If not, where and what kind of capacitor will work for AC current? I have recorded a maximum of 21v AC current when tested with a meter. I'm thinking a 50v AC in line capacitor would be perfect, but, finding one seems to be another story...

Any help?

For what bike?

This is all on a 84 YTM200L.


Thanks!

Why don't you just install a voltage regulator? They are made for exactly that purpose. They are also cheap and simple to install. Here is a link to one offered by Parts Unlimited and it's made by Moose Racing:

Briggs & Stratton (small engine manufacturer) also uses the same regulator block's on certain models of their engines.

Usually when I blow a bulb its because both lights arn't hooked up.
