The real reason the unit gets warm or hot is the voltage regulating function. With this type charging system there is no way to turn it off or drop the voltage. As the battery reaches full charge the excess voltage is diverted to ground which creates heat in the unit. If your using a car battery - the larger battery absorbs some of the heat so the unit doesn't get hot but if you using a garden tractor battery - it recharges much faster so the excessive voltage gets the unit hot.

I am actually using a garden tractor battery. I just have the relatively small sled started to turn over.

Can we get a mod to delete my posts referencing the onan rectifier- as good as it looked mounted to the shroud it does not work with the Honda coil! I don’t want to lead anyone astray.

I spoke to Lifan Tech support about my 15HP with 3 amp single wire lighting coil and advised that all I need is the 18 amp charging coil and matching regulator. The engine is supposed to already have a 4 magnet flywheel.

Part Numbers: at AWS Parts
24130-A1014-0001 Charging coil $35.00, but not in stock,
24180-A1014-0001 rectifier/regulator, $30.00, in stock.

Does anyone know if the 31630-ZE2-W01 Honda charging coil is the same diameter as the Lifan? I can get one for about $95.00, but if it won't fit the Lifan flywheel, not going to work

Thanks
