    Motorcycle Headlights upgrade
    Hi I am using Yamaha R15 Version 1 the stocks head light is not that good for night driving so I upgraded to HID with 35X2=70 W (HID main lights) + 5X2=10 W (HID angel eyes rings)+ 5X2=10 W (Halogen Pilot light) the total load was about 90 W and battery stock use to drain in 1 hour of driving or say 15-20 minutes of lights on engine OFF.

    The stock lights are 35X2=70 W + 5X2=10 W pilot lights => 80 W load.

    Now those HID died and would like to use Philips 55/60 W Night vision lights which says 100% more light than normal Halogen.
    So now total load would be 55X2=110 + 5X2=10 => 120W is it recommended to use it? Will electrical system would be able to take that much load, the wires, fues, relay, etc. How about battery draining time while driving?
