    Now my hands are itching. Here is my idea. I want to make both the beams work on my P220 FI. The difference would be that i would use halogens (Osram Night Breakers) instead of HID's. Lack of funds .

    If we have a look at the power consumption, it would be like this. 55+55+10+5=125W I can effectively reduce 15W (Pilot lamps and Licence plate lamp). Iam in need of 110W Power.
    If i run this setup what are the possible risks? Apart from quick battery drain what other issues would i face?
    I know that the rate at which the battery would discharge is way faster than the rate at which the battery would charge. So i would be left out with a dead battery after sometime.
    Any idea how much time a fully charged battery would survive at high rpms(greater than 7k) and low rpms(till 4k)? Will running at high rpms meet the Power demand?
    What are the possible things that must be done to increase the rate of charging of the battery? I know that i will have to get my stator coil re-wounded to generate more power and design a new custom RR unit. But will these two increase the rate of charging of the battery? Apart from these is there anything else that i have to modify?
    What if i get a bigger battery? Iam searching for something big. Heard that Bullets have 14Ah batteries. If i use this battery will i be able to run long?
    Also can the same wiring as rahuldevnath did can be applied to my idea?

    Iam a total noob to bike's electricals . I would be happy if all the queries are answered.

    Thanks & Cheers,
    Rahul

    Is the second beam exclusively for searching low flying planes or is it for our dear truckies?!!

    I would still prefer 2 low beams, Symmetrical looks you know!
    Imagine when Low and Inverted Low both are ON

    But seriously the headlight looks cool ! Love this thread, especially the lighting on Rahul's bike.

    @Rahul, knowing b'lore cops havent you been stopped yet ? Of course its safe cause its in a projector but still that's really bright, reaaaaaaallly bright.
    I am already running on 9ah Amaron

    Bangalore cops wont catch u unless you break a traffic rule And putting HID is not breaking rule.

    I dont understand one thing. How does a low beam inverted becomes a hi beam?! Better make that 2 low beam and one hi beam.

    BTW, looks awesome! It would be fun watching the truck drivers get heart attacks watching the "3 eyed thing" coming towards them rapidly!
    I tested the projectors and the throw comes like this.

    Really really nice bro..!

    Just waiting for the light throw snaps.. hope you find a good coil rewinder soon..
    And a financier too

    Need 6500rs for HID and 1200rs for Rewinding stuff

    Jokes apart, it's really a commendable job.
    I don't think if you invert the projector it will become high beam, we need straight beam patter for high beam.

    What are specific beams there in that setup? Putting a Ellipsoidal beam on that lower seems to be good, and you can use both of those projectors for low beam?
    I think i didn't understand what u said

    Btw what i have done is...
    Top 2 projectors, 1 is low beam and other is inverted. ( Couldn't remove shutter from it )

    Big one in middle, have removed the shutter

    So u calculate what beams they are...

    Ellipsoidal Beam - Can u explain a bit more. Some things go above my head

    AND I had called u last Sunday, cell switched off..!!

    To the best of my knowledge, if the projector shield is in the bottom part it will be low beam. So if u invert the projector it has to be high beam. So when u remove the shutter it should be both high and low together.

    Sample of Projector work i am working on my Unicorn comes like this.
    Suggestions are welcome

    BUT YES YOU CAN CONVERT A LOW BEAM PROJECTOR WITH A SHIELD TO A HIGH BEAM ONE BY REMOVING THE SHIELD
