Led light in pet carrier/storage under seat
« on: November 20, 2008, 03:38:59 AM »
I think we all went to sleep this winter. No new posts since october- anyway I always like to look at servicing and maybe some upgrades when I,m not riding. Here is a small one- replacing the small light bulb in the under the seat storage with an LED could mean that you won't run down the battery-like for a very long time. I bought the bulb from Minirik Electrical supply. If your interested I will supply the part number and cost (cheap) and plugs right in. Also if you have more than (1) or (2) scooters/motorcycles I can give the part numbers and how-to make ecomomical matching  plugs/(pig-tails)/leads for your batteries-so you can use your same battery tender charger ( or what ever kind of charger you have) and be able to plug into and charge your battery one after the other, and have a small terminal plug on eac scoot in a convenient place-like under the seat, and you won't need to remove the battery cover and/or use aligator clips. Plus done correctly you don,t need to worry about hooking up the battery charger wrong....
I think I will go recite the Millimeter conversion chart now.

I'm not sure if you were serious or not, but I would recommend not using the underseat area as a pet carrier. It can get very warm, and there's next to no air flow in the bucket. It would at the very least be extremely stressful on any pet.

"PET CARRIER" is  a  nickname  for the underseat  storgage  area..

Went for  a  100+miler  yesterday..23-38 degrees..Felt  the  front end  get  a little loose  a few times on shaded  back  roads ...

I would be interested in the part number and web site for the light under the seat. I have a People S 250.

I think I will disconnect my under seat light as I never ride a night and it is of no use to me.  And eventually I am betting I forget about it and run my battery down.  ALso plan on using the cell phone plug in to run my trickle charger to the battery - need to find out if its on all the time or just when key is on.  May need my electrician to fuse this and make sure its on all the time.

This is the snake-eating-its-tail electrical system, I reckon.  :)
