Odyssey FL250 / Any ideas on charging 12v battery on fl250?
« on: May 11, 2010, 03:46:34 AM »
I have an 83 fl250 and i would like to add a 12v deep cycle battery to power a cooling fan and HID lights.
I have a battery, fan and lights, only problem is finding a way to charge the battery.
I have tried converting the lamp coil out put to a floating ground to convert the current to DC using a bridge rectifier, however i only get 2v.
coil will run standard lights using AC, so i am assuming it is working correctly.
any ideas? how do the electric start kits charge the battery?
