My new to me ST1100 already has a new 28amp alternator.
So there's a whole lot of talk about "the upgrade" but not much discussion that I could find regarding how many actual watts are available from the 28 amp critter.
Being an electrical dummy I had to look up what amps, volts, watts really meant in terms of how much power I have.
I'm concerned about "power".
Is the equation of (volts x amps = watts) going to work?
Which I figure 12 x 28 = 336
Is 336 the number of watts available?
Has anyone put up a list of the power draws of the ST electrical system?
How much of the 336 watts is really available?
Is it safe to load the system close to maximum?
Thanks
