Generator capacity on a ec250 -15?

Hi!
Enyone here who knows how many Watts of light i can put on the bike in question?

Going trailriding in the dark. Planning on leaving the standard headlight (35W) as it is and just hang on extra leds on handelbar/fender connected to the bikes battery. Dont want to end up with an empty battery in the woods at winter...

According to the Norwegian importer, you can have a total load of 65W. I use the Endurotech headlight on my '15 EC200, it is rated at 4.5A (which is 54W at 12V), I have no tail lamp and no other loads. I use switches to select either full headlight or low headlight + grip heating.
I addition, I have a battery powered helmet lamp.

I you leave the stock headlight switched on, you are wasting much of your stator output. Mount some LED lights and only power them.

Thank you both!
My idea was to have a street legal (swedish law) headlight on the road to driving area near by. But you may be right; just a waste of watts. Better to fix a proper led alternative.

I'm having a pair of helmet lamps on china mail. Will be intresting to see how mutch light i need. Have to start with something!

Thanx again!
