If in doubt, ask sid squid. You basically running it open circuit (as a voltmeter has a near-infinite resistance)

If you want to be safe wire up 2 headlight bulbs in parellel on the outputs, they will give it a load to work with while not caring which way is +ve and -ve.

Pics, pic one connected to the battery direct with a circle clip, live side has a 20amp in line fuse and is working fine



At the back I think i'll mount it here, X marks the spot to drill a hole (well near there anyway), there's a good inch of clearance under it and a good air gap to my solo seat cover. wires are all spade ends with heat shrink on them.



to connect to the alternator I used the original socket and spades but could I have plugged to the connector i'm holding instead of the one on the left with green into yellow wires?
