can you gruound 12 volt genereter bike light to aluminum

Yes. Aluminum will conduct the power from the generator just fine. Only things to watch out for are: 1) Articulated frame--since you mentioned it's aluminum you might have one of those "newfangled" frames that are hinged. If so, it will be necessary to install a *bonding wire* across the hinged part of the frame so the current can flow unimpeded by the hinge bearing. 2) If you live near the coasts or in any area where your bike would be exposed to salt, make sure that the areas of the frame that are in contact with the steel parts of the generator and lights are protected with anticorrosion compound (a translucent-colored grease). Hope this helps.

You will need a 120 volt a/c to 12 volt dc converter. You will also have to solder the connection to the lights.

You can, but will need different bulbs as the one that come are for 127volts

Hi Damon,Do you know the polarity of the AC adapter for the a10 schwinn?Neal

It would depend on how much space is between the handlebars and the basket, but I don't see why not. If you don't want to spend the money before you're sure, maybe you can stop by your local bike shop and ask those guys! I just don't want to give you a definitive answer only to have these lights not work for you, that would bum me out!

I do not think so. I would highly suggest looking at SureFire if this is something you want to do. I wrote a review about this light. The housing is plastic. Thus the threading is also. When you need to change the battery or bulb, etc... you have to twist off the front. If you are not careful you can cross-thread the plastic threads. Once this happens the housing is trashed and you will either have a very difficult time getting that bulb portion back on the housing portion OR it won't go on anymore and you have junked it.

They are not aluminum. They are tin plated copper. Will work fine with copper house wiring.

I crashed with mine and the light is still functional. The body is aluminum and has some gouges and scores from encounters with concrete and other parts of the bike. The mount is just plastic; mine broke when I crashed. Also, the mount doesn't grip tightly to metal or paint. Wrap some tape around the point where you plan to mount it and that will keep it from shifting around.

you could wire a completely different circuit for turn signals and keep it seperate from your brake lights, but I don't know why you would want to do it that way. The 12 volt leds won't be as bright on 6 volts, but they will work ok.

No this unit can not weld aluminum it is a DC Inverter unit only. It runs on ac power from the wall outlet but the inverter converts it to DC for arc welding. Hope this answer helps.

Yes you can weld aluminum. You can use the TIG process for it, or stick with the proper rods.

It would indeed need some creative wiring. Search the BKrider model : MW17-802 It would be the switch you would want to use for the bike.

It could be but you would probably have to turn it sideways. A headlight lamp would be a better option. Planet Bike Blaze 1/2-Watt LED Bicycle Light with Helmet and QuickCam Mounts:Planet Bike Blaze 1/2-Watt LED Bicycle Light with Helmet and QuickCam Mounts

Yes any bike and the tape on the lights didnt work for me and the switches fit in 2holes on the frame near the starter on my street glide

My bike that had the clamp on it was stolen, so now I have a light, but no clamp. Any suggestions? I've since bought better lights, but a backup is nice to have.

Nope, your bike takes an H4 style bulb. Check out www.f800riders.org, great forum and lots of info on upgrades and repairs:)

Should work no problem. Just make sure the bulb connector on your bike matches the connector in the kit! If not you may have to hardwire it to the ballast harness. The current draw compares to that of a halogen bulb . Digital ballasts usually take less current and step it up so you likely wont pop any fuses. They are much brighter than their halogen counterpart.
