And although that list is quite useful, the very first entry (for an SH775) is incorrect, as that unit isn't a MOSFET Series R/R.... Quote:
As you appear to have a corporate A/C with those guys (required to open an account/ask web-form questions - understandable given they're 100% OEM/zero retail), would you be in a position to ask for specific datasheets? Or technical questions? Reason for asking is that the SH775 is an 35A SCR-based series R/R. It used to be dirt-cheap ($60), but now is much more expensive (like $192 as a Polaris OEM part), and is known to have at least one problem;intended for an ATV, it doesn't regulate over some high RPM - variously reported to be 9,000 RPM (strongly disputed by guys who've measured theirs at this), or 10,000 RPM. In the absence of any real evidence, looks like you could choose what you want to believe: https://www.vmaxforum.net/threads/re...-esr279.47773/ https://www.triumphrat.net/threads/a....748962/page-2 And even Jake is only repeating what some customers have told him, apparently https://v4musclebike.com/forums/show...ndengen&page=3 (BTW, page two of that thread has a video of a chap statically rev'ing his bike to 10,000 RPM, and the voltage output from the SH775 remains constant - another guy in the same thread says he had the SH775 fitted and working perfectly for 2 years before he even heard there was supposed to be an issue over 10,000 RPM)... But it'd be really, really nice to have a definitive statement from ShinDengen... Apparently, some of those Triumph 4's are red-lined at 14,000, 16,000 RPM (wow, ...). I can see how any limit would matter to them. Jake used to supply the SH775. He now doesn't, and recommends the SH847 instead - because gets them for almost the same money. He has expressed concerns regarding the SH775 and the RPM limit; he isn't convinced that the shutdown it performs when this limit is exceeded (which he states as 9-10K, so quotes 9K to be conservative) is non-harmful to the unit itself. From his POV, the SH775 is potentially problematic for some and very close to the same price as the SH847 - which has more capacity and works with everything... I can see exactly where he's coming from. but

Question for you gents....a mate of mine had a MOTOBATT AGM on his bike...told me his bike wouldn't start...took a Lithium with me ( higher CCA ) just to prove battery is probably flat.....he said when trying to start it was just chattering ie rattling the starter sprag..thus insufficient current to spin it over.....the MOTOBATT showing over 12volts but not enough current to spin over the bike....once an AGM battery is flat....ie this one hadn't been charged for months and it was an old battery.....are they beyond being recovered back to a fully charged state.....I've had both good and bad experiences with MOTOBATT over the years....Incidentally , the Lithium fired the bike up straight away...Look forward to your replies.Thanks.

It's generally accepted that AGM batteries shouldn't be discharged by more than 50%, (which equates to 11.95v). If left heavily discharged for a long period, it may be impossible to recharge it fully. There are 'hacks' you can try to recover it, for example charging it in parallel with another, healthy, AGM battery. But, if you've any doubts about the battery's health, you're probably better off just replacing it.
