till now...i am.
please confirm my circuit is okay.
bridge rectifier as per shoeb2015 bhai suggestion.
25v 4700uf capacitor added.
rectifier ac negative (-) is empty. will i join it with black dc -ve wire.

will update soon.
any idea how to cover open connections.

The solder and the wires haven't been heated properly,probably due to a low wattage iron.
Try to use clips like this to attach wires to the Rectifier.


You can use heat shrink tubing to cover it or use a liquid electrical tape/insulator.
That heat-sink is big and good.

Rest of the stuffs - horn, indicators, tachometer, brake lamp, tell tale lamps, fuel meter and the starter motor runs on DC through the battery. I converted all the AC stuffs to run on DC.

Advantages -
1. Nil Flickering at idle - constant brightness of headlight.
2. HID ready - can directly install HID in place of my 60/55W light. No battery draining issues.

The procedure is described below. Can be potentially adapted to any bikes.

Step 1

Prepare the AC to DC rectifier circuit. The circuit diagram is given below.



The above circuit is a standard bridge rectifier circuit. Use only parts mentioned above. Check for correct polarity of the diodes and the capacitors.
Hi friend,

This circuit is entirely wrong. It may be kill your magneto coil at high R.P.M..
Pulsar 150 ES can't convert to DC in this way.
Coz one of the Lighting coil is internally connected to ground(GND or Body) in magneto(dynamo) and the other one is Y/R wire to Regulated Rectifier(RR).
Internal grounding of magneto help to reduce the wires in the circuit. (Now the Magneto & RR wires are 6)
This is the main risk to convert all circuit to DC.

Now the battery charging circuit is DC. And the charging coil is separated or not grounding internally.
But the lighting circuit is AC and share one of the AC line with Ground or negative of battery.

If anyone convert AC to DC this way it not safe.
If convert AC to DC use with a bridge circuit minimum four wires are required.
Never share one AC line and negative of DC on a bridge ckt. It will be burn one bridge diode or magneto coil at high power.

The lighting coil power is reduce to half in the above circuit.
In above circuit lighting coil half-wave shorted by one bridge diode.

You can use a half-wave rectifier to convert AC to DC. The below ckt save your magneto lighting coil. But the lighting coil power is reduce to half as the above circuit.

could anyone please throw light to this post?i too own a pulsar 150 06 model..would like to do..high rpm is often for my bike.hence i dont want to take risks..could anyone explain the stuff at high rpms?

Actually nothing is safe if you don't do it correctly and tinker with stock setup.
The recommended way is to go with Ape RR with un-grounded coils which gives Full Wave.It is tried and tested by many.

I had no issues with this setup, I used it for quite some time... tested at high revs... FYI stock DC -ve & one AC end is also shorted, doesn't cause any problem.

Also i don't have any issue with this circuit, I am running my bike with all DC and also installed HID projector kit.

One problem i have that when i do at High Beam other lights (Projector Angel Eye, Pilot Lamps and Console lamps gets quiet dull) but no flickering issue. Also other stuffs are running fine

Could anyone help me to improve at High Beam?

The yellow-red wire that you connected to the battery to power the headlight from the battery needs a switch on it. To use self start you have to switch this off and then once the engine cranks you can turn it on again.

Basically you need to disable power to the headlight wire for the BCU to enable the starter. Get it? If not then PM me
