Does anyone know how many amps the Delco-Remy starter makes for SS12 tractors?
My front headlights are 35watts each and the little taillight is tiny, not sure how much. I bought the smallest work light I could find, which is 35 watts.
I've searched for days and haven't been able to find out this info. I need it to put out at least 10 amps, but I'm afraid it only makes 7amps (that is a guess by someone on another board).

I finally found out that my starter/generator puts out 15 amps. So I added the work light last night. I still need to wire in a fuse but it's almost ready:

Most of the regulators for the S/G"s have a fourth terminal on the regulator marked "L". This is where to connect your lights. The light will only work with the engine running but the lights will have less affect on the battery charging when connected to the "L" terminal.

Most starter/generators were rated for 15 amp output, with the engine running about 3400-3600 rpm.

Remember with all the lights that you add, to leave a few amps to charge the battery with.

Also, if you have a battery powered igntion, you need to leave a couple amps for that to use also.

Those LED lights put out a lot of light, so i've been told, and don't draw a lot of power.
