Now that would be a useful accessory to have with you.... Does Lincoln or Miller make said accessory for ST's?Should last a long time unless you are using it for a welder..........
The brushes can indeed be changed. Mine were close to the wear limit mark at 150,000 miles, but evidently they continue to work well past that point.How many miles does the average alternator go before needing replacement ?

I blew my '05's with heated gear, 55W X2 driving lights and two Stebels. It died when I hit the Stebels.SupraSabre I have a 2009 bought brand new leftover in 2010, now with 63,000 miles on it. So I should have no alternator worries at all.
I do have heated grips and about 70 watts worth of additional running lights,
I use Gerbings heated gloves, jacket & pants occasionally in the winter.
spiderman302 I don't use a welder Ha! no overload there
Now, that's interesting....I was told for police bikes, make sure you test the alternator when buying as 60k seems to be a common do or die break point.
