Hey
I'm converting an AC headlight on a moped to DC for an LED.
I'm trying to figure out which capacitor and inline fuse to use. I believe the fuse should be 5 amp. ?
I'm adding the capacitor to smooth out the power to the LED.
Here's the info:
The AC generator puts out 12V and 65W at 5,000 rpm.
The old headlight is 25W. So, 2.8 Amps and 5.8 Ohms. Correct?
I have a 12V, 4 pins regulator/rectifier for a scooter already.
The bulb I have is an 18W, 12W bulb. 12,000 LMS, DC 12V-24V bulb. It's an h4.
I've been going in circles trying to figure out which style and size capacitor.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks
