    Mikes XS PMA vs Hughs Hand Built PMA ? which to buy?

    Without a doubt, 90% of our tech support and issues related to electrical come down to install issues. We do our best to stand behind those as well, even though technically not our fault, its nice to get these bikes on the road, and that is what matters most. Our tech on the website lends...

    Mikes XS PMA vs Hughs Hand Built PMA ? which to buy?

    Of course, we grow and learn over the years. What we were told by manufacturers, and what we found in our own testing and use of these products (we do ride the bikes, dang near daily in the nice season) will always allow for us to find new information, prove ourselves wrong at time (better to...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    This is the response I received from the Engineer of the Manufacturer of our Stators (RMStator), as they came here to check this thread specifically and then got back to me: Hey Hugh, happy Thanksgiving tomorrow man, hope you have a great day! To reply to his comment: On most of our stators...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    The 3 Phase Stators we have been using for about 6 years now in our PMA Systems are all wound similarly, however, I will pass this feedback along to my suppliers and see what their thoughts on it are. It hasn't been an issue in the past, however it can't hurt to see if it's something to look into.

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    I do not have a pic right on hand, its a custom wound stator, to provide just the right output at low rpm for batteryless operation, and still not be too high of output at high rpm. On the outside, it looks like most any other Stator with a source coil however. Im currently out of stock, or...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    The HHB CDI shares no components with the PMA except for the stator mount. It's fairly obvious when in hand the differences. The CDI Flywheels are tapped for adjustable timing tabs as well, the PMA Flywheels are not. The Stators are night and day different, without a doubt, and they do not...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    It does use a Source Coil for ignition, so even with a totally flat battery or dead charging side, you can have spark and keep on riding. I've not looked at an SR Unit, this is not an adapted unit, but rather a custom wound stator, along with a flywheel that is different from the one we use...

    NEED SOME HELP on New CDI SETUP BEING SOLD

    I'm very reachable via Email, FB, Instagram, etc.. That hasn't really changed. I'll admit a lack of presence here, mostly due to a few changes at HHB. Changes you ask? Yes, we were once a 7 Man Operation. All 7 were full time employees, and we were keeping busy with Engine Builds...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    Lets see if I can do this picture thing properly, I haven't used the new format here just yet... MOSFET on the left, Standard Style On the Right.

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    Exactly! Failures are common when the regulators are shunting 80-90% of the wattage being created. We are seeing it on the older Honda's and Suziki's too, being "chopped/cafe'd/etc" when they have little to no draw with the lighting systems and ignitions. Up until this point, all of the...

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    It was great putting a name with a GGGary username! Thanks for the kind words my man! PS = Tevan got bit by the XS650 racing bug, his XS2 might be hitting the track at some point :)

    CDI massive voltage drop with headlight on

    The HD Type Regulator is a Mosfet unit, we have been testing them on our CDI system for a bit now, as we did find that our original 15A regulators were not working up to task (the rating was proper, on paper, but in the real world, a handful of folks proved otherwise) - we sent out a replacement...

    NEED SOME HELP on New CDI SETUP BEING SOLD

    "Kenny Roberts" CDI was returned to us, fully butchered - we still refunded his money 100% (he didn't give us much choice, with a claim on his card, nor did he give any communications on the subject, it just showed up at the door one day) - but we would have gladly sorted it out best we could...

    You can always email me perhaps? I'm sorry I don't spend more time on these forums, I've been working non-stop these days keeping up with demand. I am however, happy to answer any direct questions you folks may have. Our system is 100% Standalone in design. Regulator hooks directly from...

    Hugh's CDI Ignition

    I built an ignition for my VW Powered Rock Crawler one time using GM Pickup, a lump ring on the crank, custom ECU and Coil Packs. Anything can be done if you are patient and willing to play a little bit for sure... Have fun with it! I did a ton of trial and error on my first custom ignition...

    Hugh's CDI Ignition

    I'm not 100% sure of the advance curve on the Banshee Boxes personally, we have out advance curve mapped based on Dyno Tuning from some folks in Canada who are doing all of this on a stock 76' XS650, and a 700cc Rephased XS650 - the map is the same for both engine setups which is nice. They...
