Big Chuck said: (quoted from post at 19:51:26 08/19/08) I am trying to convert my M to 12 volts. The 12 to 6 volt reducer I bought for the coil wire didn"t reduce the voltage at all and ruined the coil. Can I just remove the reducer and use a 12 volt coil instead? If I do will I need to modify any part of the electriacl system? Thanks
If you just go to auto store and ask for a "ballast resistor", you can and will get anything from about 0.3 ohms up to about 2 ohms. Almost a 7 to one ratio. The 0.3 will not do much voltage reduction at typical 3 amp coil current. 0.3 ohm X 3A=0.9 volts. Far from a 6v reduction!
2 ohms X 3amps=6volts
You just never know what the parts guy will hand you.
