New voltage regulator/rectifier launched on Kickstarter

[MikeJansen]

Dear all,

 

We from Ultimate Rectifier are trying to get publicity for our Kickstarter project. We know that this is against the forum rules, but we hope there can be an exception for us. We are motor enthusiasts and familiar with the voltage regulator/rectifier problems. Therefore, we started an engineering team to develop the Ultimate Rectifier in our spare hours. Now four years later, the product is finished. We have designed a new voltage regulator/rectifier that can handle extremely high loads. The engineering was more expensive than we thought and therefore we can’t afford much advertisement. We are looking for pre-sales to get our voltage regulator/rectifier on the market and solve this problem for ones and for all. For more information:

There is already a good solution to this problem. The Shindengen SH775 Series (genuine ones not eBay rip offs) regulator rectifier.

Most OEM reg/Rec are Shunt units this means they "shunt" the excess energy to ground (-VE), heating the winding and the Reg/rec as the stator is working flat out all the time even if bat is fully charged and not much load on the system. A series Reg/Rec switches the current off and on depending on the load. This is the case for all permanent magnet alternators as opposed to alternators which have a field winding, this field coil is used to vary the amount of excitation controlling the output of the alternator.

 

I believe that either the Vstrom 650 uses a series r/r as standard. 

 

I would expect a longer than 3 year warranty. 

 

These SH775's are widely available for most bikes using 3 phase alt with perm magnets (3 yellow wires)
