Regulator Rectifiers
Several regulator rectifier models to choose from.
All fit Superhawk / RC-51 and more.
Thermostatic controlled fan model(175.00) can be placed in areas with no air flow.
Two peice Racing regulator and rectifier model($155.00) separates the two components allowing the regulator to operate at a fraction of the temperature it normally endures.
Other variations include dash/windscreen mounted charging system status indicators($35.00) that can be used even if you dont have our Regulator/Rectifier.
The diodes used in the rectifier are twice the rating of stock rectifier diodes.
Stop carrying a spare on long rides out of fear.
Never be left with a dead rectifier again.
Lifetime guarantee
We ship worldwide.

Latest two peice regulator rectifier.
Patented design keeps regulator cool while keeping hot parts separated.
Low EMF and field resistant.
Pics show test mounting. Can be mounted anywhere on bike.
Green LED on rectifier lid, and red LED on regulator cover lights up when
regulator fires the SCRs. Good visual indicator of charge system functionality.

I thought I had already posted this one but maybe not.
This is the current flagship model, the thermostatic fan variant.
It fits perfectly in the underseat slot where the toolkit or something goes.
This is the most thermally stable R/R on earth.
The fan runs and shuts off every few minutes proving its ability to control case temperatures. Its fan thermostat switch is set at 115 degrees F, and runs for about 30 seconds after bike is shut down.
The system benefits from the extra cooling the fan provides, but is not dependent on the fan.
(a cheaper version of this same unit has the fan and its thermo switch omitted...same warranty)
Photo 1 shows bench testing and inspection of a heavily used unit. Peak charge LED glows.
2nd photo is static right from box.
Two crappy photos of the charging status indicator included.
Left LED is charge indicator, Middle LED is peak indicator set to around 16v,and the right side LED is alarm. When it comes on you better slow down and pull the plug on your R/R, or fry up some electronics. That would mean your regulator fried out and the unit is over-charging the battery, and everything else. Stock R/R do this type of failure about 30% of the time. Its worse than if the rectifier quits and simply stops charging. At least you wont burn up expensive parts.
That was one of my favorite additions. Allowed me to get rid of the voltmeter I had taped onto the tank bag for testing.
The velcro mounting tabs hold on nicely, even at high speeds.
Looks kind of big in photos due to perspective. It measures 0.5"x1.5"x2.0"

In the sun maybe. That could be a problem, lol .
In the shade 1t would take 145 degrees air temp to create a 115 degree reading on that case if mounted under seat or out of sight..
The fan would stop within a minute even there in that heat.
anyway, that can be fixed with a different thermoswitch if it became an issue.
