Landscaping tasks, looking at a BX24, will it be enough? Pictures included!

Yes, with power left over to charge the battery....

The dynamo on the BX23 is rated at 15amp output max.
The std lamps on the BX23 draw approx 3 amps each.
The two 35watt lights I added draw (35w / 12v = 2.9 amps ea.
Total current draw for all lights = 12 amps max which is well below the 15amp output of the dynamo......

The light switch is rated at 15 amps so adding the additional load is well below it's max rateing too.

btw, that's why I went with 2ea. 35watt lights and wired them in the way I did

btw I posted about adding these lights a couple yrs ago, pics and everything

Looks to me like you could install 3 55 W lights without any problem with the 15 A dynamo then.

I like a shop/garage that is so large that you need to put exit signs above the doors.

Wow lots of action on this thread

Got that b 7800 broke in yet?

You still need to get a BX24 to make the BX owners here happy-besides you can do a lot more things with 2 tractors than you can with 1
I ought to know as I have 5 tractors.

LBRown59 - thanks for that post - this thread got so long I wasn't sure what Taiser bought...
He can call me to borrow the BH

Enjoy Mr. Taiser... I look forward to comparing notes with you over the next several years... as I have the BX and now 34 acres to do a lot with - this is the real world superbowl of tractors I guess... We should try and compile a monthly or bi-monthly comparison of what we did and did not do with the tractors on our property to give future folks in the same thought trap you and I landed in some direction... Just a thought.
