    This is part 8 in the build series.
    The Yamaha Blaster has an AC powered ignition and 55watt lighting system. In this video I will show how to separate the system so the quad continues to run on AC while the lighting system is converted to DC with a high output lighting coil (75watt), small battery and a regulator to power your DC lighting and auxiliary charging needs. Note that the OEM light is AC. If you're floating the stator you are creating a DC circuit which won't power your OEM AC headlight without popping bulbs.

    The older Yamaha bikes just used a diode going to the battery and retained the AC voltage regulator. Is there a reason the same would not work on a blaster?

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před rokem

      Interesting. I haven't noticed a diode on other bikes but now that you mention it I suspect there is one on the Polaris Trailboss 250 I'm working on now. I can't say I know if that would work on the Blaster. (I haven't seen any Blasters like that at this point either.)

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před 2 měsíci

      This is a separate circuit from the cdi/ecu. They are an ac system on the blaster. This separates the system into a dc system for lighting and ac for ignition. Completely separate from the cdi/ecu. It will have no impact on it.

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před 2 měsíci

      Brake light will be a part of the new dc system tied to the battery and separated from the ac system. So yes it will still function but on a different electrical system. Note that my Blaster does not have a multifunction brake light like the gen2 Blasters. I can’t say specifically how they are wired in to have a multifunction when the brake is applied but if it is simply ‘on’ with the high/low beam then yes it will still function the same if you put it on the new dc circuit.

      It doesn’t come with a battery. This would be a mod to be able to add a battery with a charging system.

    Could you do this with the stock stator ?

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Yes, this is simply a replacement stator with a bigger lighting coil. Stock stator will put out 55watts of power vs this one which output 75watts. Plenty of guys do this to stock stators so they can put an LED on and battery/charging system.

    Hi umm wear can I get or buy the charging system so I can put a battery on my Yamaha blaster

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před měsícem +1

      Easy to find but be advised the blaster is an ac charging system and battery systems are dc. You will need to convert your stator etc for it to work without destroying things. As to wear to but, I tend to use 12v golf cart charging units that can be found on Amazon EBay. That said there are also ‘kits’ you can buy for the Blaster from South Texas Banshee. You may have to reach out to them for the product but may prove to be an easier route. Good luck :).

    • @VermontLife
      @VermontLife  Před 11 měsíci

      This wouldn’t have anything to do with the quad firing, just the lighting system. If it won’t fire first check the basics. (Fuel flow, compression and spark) That will give you an idea of where to start. Let me know if I can help more.

      @@twofortyrida Yes, check out 4:48 time stamp or so where I talk about what to do with the fifth wire on a gen two stator being used on a gen 1 Blaster. If it's a gen 2 just leave that green ground going to the cdi as it is grounding for the AC system. Essentially you can forget about that green wire going to the cdi and just focus on the lighting coil wires as I described. Good Luck.

      You went through the float process then went direct to the lights? You really do want to have the battery and regulator in the mix to provide stable power otherwise I would expect you’d over power the light bulb. Be sure to run the lights off the battery leg for a consistent 12v.
