Heated Clothing
03/10/21 11:39 AM

Looking for opinion please on a 1441,s ability to put out enuf electrical juice for 2 sets of heated jacket liners & gloves ?
We’re about to head into Autumn here.
I’m still using the bikes original heavy battery
But, I’ve also bought a much lighter weight Lipo alternative that’s not yet installed due to my imminent week trip away to Tasmania & not wanting to put anything at risk.
I’ll be fitting up the lighter battery in a couple of weeks.
Aso, do Lipo type batteries benifit from a trickle charger ?
Never used one B4.
Thanx all.

I have a Earth x lithium battery in mine. Way more cranking power, less drain when uncharged. I did use a tender even though they say it is not necessary.

The LIfo Battery has way more amperage then stock, and can easily handle some electric clothing. I use infra red heated clothing which is better for you then traditional.

FIR heated apparel

Bike sitting in Florida last few months, will see if she starts next week when my friend tries to start it for me.

Alternator is putting out 35amps x 14 volts = 490 watts.

Need to get the specs for the gear and total it up.

A BMW GS doesnt put out much more, 580 just like a concours 14.

Use led lights and free up a lot of amps/watts.... 8 watts versus 55 x 4 bulbs, lol 200 watts versus 32 that your alternator has to supply.
