While on the topic of batteries, has anyone heard of CEEPL, which manufactures the 'Power' range of hybrid batteries? They claim to make batteries for most of our bikes.

Hybrid Battery is a revolutionary and unique concept in the field of two-wheeler batteries. Hybrid Battery is a combination of latest Ultra-capacitor technology with VRLA Battery. Both these components being completely maintenance free, the user can have a hassle free ride. Furthermore Ultra-capacitor circuitry is a long life component which could last for more than the life of the vehicle. This feature reduces the future cost of battery to a great extent as the user has to replace only VRLA battery after 2 years which costs several times less than the total cost of the battery. No change in the original vehicle is required to use the Hybrid Battery.

Ultra capacitor + VRLA battery = Hybrid Battery

what are the mods done on you P200 in regards to making DC power for your HID setup?

Hello there.. I have a Suzuki GS150R. The headlights are useless !! Anyone know an effective solution without draining too much battery ? Can we use OSRAM Night Breaker or Philips Vision Plus without causing too much load ? I guess I have 35W electricals and Halonix Headlamp, not sure though. I dont want to change the electricals but want a better head lamp than the one existing without overloading battery.

Friends,
I too own a GS150R & the stock bulb is a 35/35w Halonix.I changed it to a 35/35w Philips & got little improvement.But I wanted to know if I can install a 55/60w bulb.The bikes electricals are NOT DC.

Can I directly fit a 55/60w bulb OR do i need to make any mods like coil winding & et etc ,which will obviously void my warranty.

Else can I run aux lights directly from the battery which will again void my warranty.

I do not want to install any HID.

Please tell me what should i go with & which will be a better option.

Thanking in advance.

Hey Rahul,
I seriously don't know man, as one of my friend took my bike for the same. There is a 2 way switch for the Bi-Xenon and is in DC and can be operated without starting the bike, but with the iginition key on! Rest is fine, the only problem that i'm facing now is that rectifier output when the HID is on is kind of low which is 12.86v while i'm getting 14.56v @ 5000 rpm if the HID's are kept off!! Any suggestions to improve the rectifier output???? Tried swapping the pilot lamps to LED's and not much difference so back to stock on that!!!
