C45NV Dynamo

[Robert F.Butson]

Can anyone confirm the Lucas stated output for the C45NV dynamo. The article in TTT2 and again MGOCC Bullitin claims 11 amps. Bob. Wales UK.

Robert, I cannot confirm 11 amps is Lucas's stated output but the late Bob Jeffers stated that is the practical limit and built a regulator to limit max output to 11 amps. Tim Bloomfield TB0613 Rather cool Louisiana Sent from my iPad

Hello Group, I am still looking for a statement from oficial Lucas literature as to the sustainable output from a C45 NV dynamo. There must be a Lucas catalogue with this information somewhere. Any ideas anywhere?.....Bob. Wales UK.
