Can a 6th gen VFR handle heat gloves and liner?
#2
I would think yes...I have an XM radio, Hotgrips, GPS, Autocom and a Powerlet that I use for my Kanetsu Heated Darien LIner and have had no issues, even while using everything at the same time.

It's been working for me. I've had the Synergy gloves, vest and heated grips all on at once a few times already. When I put the bike on the battery tender there doesn't seem to be any battery drain from using all three. It usually goes immediately to green.

It might help by using up all the extra energy that the Reg/Rect has instead of dissipating it as heat and causing it to burn out. :fing02:

I use my Gerbing gloves but Never, ever use High Beams per Recall Bulletin( haven't had time to get the recall done on my o3)LOL! :beer:

I installed headed grips a few years ago and they work great.

You have around 240W to use before you're going to be draining the battery.

I normally fire wire a high end RD and a vest, it seems to be fine, but not sure how much more. what I do notice my last stator with all turned on and sitting at a light for a while, id see the high 12's, this new sator i ve never see below mid 13's in the same situation.

My Regulaltor has over 82,000 mile, present stator about 25,000 mile , so this stator is about half life more than likely
