Is It Charging ????

[Five Five]

As I push through the crowd towards my Bike I notice a group of people surrounding my bike... I kindly excuse my self as I grab my helmet hanging off my foot peg and strap it on... answering a few questions about my bike I reach in my pocket and pull out my key and insert it into the ignition... power on I hit the run button than the start button ."click-click-click" WTF my battery is dead ....not giving up I cycle the ignition key again while manually engage the compression releases, I hit the start button as I slowly hear my motor cycling through the stroke and BAM it fires up backing the crowd up.... I get the thumbs up from everybody :2thumbs: drop it into 1st gear and head home.... First off I want to say the Tomioka Battery didn't miss a lick on the 90 mile round trip and now on to the subject posted... As I search previous post I remember Bubblehead posting about a charge indicator light (found it) and Mad Dog sells them (Value Tech Ent $27) So I bought one today .... I think it's a great little unit and it will keep me informed at a glance ... Not sure where to mount the indicator light, so lets hear some ideas (thinking the coil cover)

Thanks for the post Bill, maybe you should be Mad Dog's top salesman on the forum. You have made me want something that I didn't even know existed until now. I think that this is a "cheap insurance", barely costs more than a tank of gas for your bike!
Post a pic of the mounting solution you come up with, if I don't beat you to it.

I know it's a sin to even mention his name, but "The Dead One" (former member) introduced this same voltage indicator a couple of years ago. At that time, they were much more expensive, may still be. Anyway, they came mounted with a small piece of aluminum that was a perfect fit for using one of the screws in the coil. I always give mine a glance when I first fire up.

Is it waterproof?

Bill,

I purchased one from Mad Dog and mounted it several months ago, I have it hooked up with an on and off toggle switch directly to the battery.....I didn't want to chance putting it in the EHC system. I took several pictures and posted them to the Forum, I have since changed the mounting a little. It works great when I can remember to turn it on. It's a pretty straight forward simple mount.

 

[francoblay1]

Rick,

can you show us the pictures? Thanks.

Yeah I like the coil cover idea

I added a plug in under the Battery Box (switch would be better). It is routed along the wire harness so it barely sticks out from the bottom of the Battery box opening so I can see it. It also reflects off the Starter so I can see the color from above.

I angled the camera shot so you could see the led just to the right of the oil temperature gauge. I had to use no flash to show the reflection off the starter.
