No-one even mentioned headlamps "of more than 60w".But a halogen 60w headlamp + leccy ignition already draws more than the 60w total those gennies were designed for, at 6v. Yes, jumping to 12v DOUBLES the potential wattage - but you'd have to keep the revs up to see that.Thats an interesting comment. I'll get back to you on that, but heavier wire is definitely required if you are going to (try to) pull 120w out of an originally 60w gennie, they apparently run quite warm if you are using all of that.
