ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Check if your vehicle has adequate charging system to switch
On the GEN X-3 heated apparels and maintain their operation
without discharging your battery below a minimum required
level, for this you will have to check the vehicle's alternator
capacity/output (in watts: Check your vehicle's manual to get
the correct wattage) then subtract the current drawn (in watts)
of all the vehicle electrical components when switched ON.
The balance wattage figure is what you have left to operate our
heated apparels and accessories.
Most of today's vehicle 400CC and above will have no problem
with the charging system of the vehicle if the RIDER and
PASSENGER are wearing a complete set of our heated
garments at the same time.
EXAMPLE – If a vehicle has an alternator capacity/output of
550 watts. Total watts consumed by two headlights is 110W,
turn signal 21W, brake light 10W, license plate light 5W.
Therefore total consumption equals 146W. Therefore you will
be left with a balance of 404 watts which is more than sufficient
to run a full set of heated apparels or any combination or type
by either one rider or by two people at the same time.
Check our product features to know the wattage consumed by
each one of them.
