Or Canada for that matter.:idea:Report back for sure then please
If it's good and my R/R is bad, my next question to them will be do you ship to Australia...

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

They apparently ship to Aus. as evidenced by a satisifed customer.
Why have none of you checked the facebook page?

Wuss.
Facebook is a social networking site. It is very popular and a decent way to interface if you are into that sort of stuff.

Awesome...
But I ain't signin' up to facebook... don't have time to do all the things I need and want to do now without that added distraction

In case you hadn't noticed, this is a "social networking site", too.
I am still looking for permanent employment in my neck of the woods so I don't have to travel all the time.
So far, I am still proud to tell any prospective employers:
"My face is not on FaceBook,
I have no space on MySpace,
Twittering is for the birds,
My classmates know they won't find me on classmates.com,
I have no idea what all the Buzz is about at Google.
I don't do ANY of those things."
I know people that have either lost a job, been reprimanded or not gotten a job in the first place, due to postings on "social networking" sites.
If a prospective employer wants to sign on here to see how I "handle myself", I will be happy to show him my posting history.

Steve,I agree with you 100%.(Maybe it's an "old fart" thing!)
As a matter of fact,we recently had an employee here get fired for posting his opinions of a client on Facebook.While he was at work!
His logic was that only his friends could see his comments.
Yeah,NOBODY on a corporate network checks that stuff!(Except for maybe the corporate IT guys.)

Old Farts? I'm only 38 and have no desire to join the facebook militia....
Oh wait, 20 years ago any 38 yo was an old fart.

The first lemming just jumped.... I should have one of these in my hands sometime next week.
Will report back

Awesome Dan! Someone's got to be the leader.:clap:
I'm another with no interest in Facebook.

Good price, hope it works out great. I really like the CE-902 I put on my gs1100g. I have a digital voltage gauge on the bike and it holds steady right at 13.8 volts. Not like the OEM I had. The voltage jumped up and down while traveling down the road. Over 400 miles on it, since the install.

The wire size alone makes me wonder about the durability of the units. I'll keep my Compufire and put a Compufire on the next bike.

Any updates on this? Enquiring minds would like to know.
Seems like the wire size could safely be smaller as it's a series regulator, it's only carrying the current the bike needs, not carrying a bunch extra to dump through the regulator. A bit of current to replace what was used in the start, then just enough to run the lights and ignition and stuff?
No EE expert here, it just seems that way.
Unit just turned up. No markings on it. No time to fit it yet, I think Nessism has a campfire so we should be able to compare. Looks very similar from the pics I've seen.
Tony at Oregon seems to know his stuff from the emails I've had from him.
How do we independently determine if this is series? I only have a regular multimeter.

Dan,
The direct way would be to measure the AC current at 500 Hz but we already talked about that; a $20 meter won't do it.
You might be able to compare a SHUNT type with a SERIES type by monitoring the AC Voltage. Depends on the volt meter of course but when as teh RPM goes up the voltage will go up but then stop stop rising as the as SHUNT shorts the winding pairs. On the other hand the SERIES will open up the leg causing the voltage (during that phase to rise to open circuit). So the AC voltage should keep going up on an RMS basis.
I would see if it is not just simply a SCR SHUNT type by testing for a full wave rectifier (see the diode tests for the R/R). Neither the FET SHUNT of SERIES should have the full wave rectifier and would fail at least 1/2 of those tests; they use synchronous rectification which is the main reason they stay cooler.
Jim
That is true, but it is a pretty circumstantial test for declaring it a SERIES R/R. You would at least want to go back to back SHUNT to SERIES. Even then the results are likely to be inconclusive due to multiple variables. See the winding open and current drop to zero in the stator is conclusive.
The scope trace here shows what happend when the phase opens; voltage goes up, current drops to zero and power drops to zero (during the time the phase is open).
