I put in a Bi-xenon HID - which even with the claim to replace a B20D, it did not. It came with adapters but none fit the Xinguyue headlight socket area.
I ended up using zip ties to keep it in place.
I've run 10 minutes stationary, with the headlight on, and while the lens did get warm, it was never hot enough to burn or melt. I did not add vent holes like some people do for an H4 upgrade. I didn't add holes when I put in the 45/45 H4 either. The housing is stock besides rim holes to pass the zip ties through.
I did swap the indicated high/low leads because the focus seems to work better reversed. Low beam shined high on street signs, high beam was shining low.
I haven't ridden in the dark yet, but it seems to have a ton of light.
I am not getting a high output (only 13.1V at a cruising RPM) from the stator upgrade yet, not sure why. I've checked with the headlight disconnected, there is no difference.

The bulb actually moves for the high/low change. I didnt have it keyed to the top. Looks better now.

pull he black wire from the regulator see if the voltage comes up . What is the total wattage of the fuel injection system ?

When I pulled the black wire last time - a few weeks ago - the voltage did not change, on the DVM or my dash gauge. But I will have another try.
Per the Ecotrons install manual: Note: the kit needs 12V charging system for power supply. The charging requirement is 3.5A current or 50W power as the minimum.

can you turn off the lights ? if so does you charging voltage go up ? are you using the white wire ?

I have checked with the headlight 100% disconnected, there is no difference. The white wire is pulling up a relay for the headlight.
I checked again. Black disconnected = no change, 13.1-13.3 at raised RPM. Disconnected the white = no headlight = no change. LEDs for all other lights except the instrument panel.

brush ground with the black wire see if the voltage goes up .

How far is the regulator from the stator ? What size wire are you using ?

The stator is connected directly to the regulator with the wires it. Thee additional connections -such as to the battery + and ground are 14 or even 12. My red wire doesnt seem to have any marking. but it is larger than the green 14.
Ground the regulator side of the black, I assume? I won't get to it tonight.
Did you see the stator + regulator upgrade harness on bugglydepot? Not cheap but I wonder if it would have helped in my case. Original regulator was up front. Now the upgrade regulator is out back in the air.
(Since my Znen has a 12pole, I wont need to do another upgrade. Unless I get another scooter...)

so your not using the 11pole stator ? I did see that harness I'm working on my own for the 50cc and 150cc engines . I have the parts for the 50cc otherwise . I ordered smaller 7pin regulators , Im waiting for them to get here . They sent me 6pin by mistake , I want the white wire on the regulator being it is only energized when the engine is running . It will ease in wiring mods .

I am using the 11-pole stator, mag and regulator I got from you.
Scooter #1 is the Xingyue ITA150 with 16" wheels, Ecotrons EFI, 1" header, HID headlight and the 11-pole setup.
Scooter #2 is the Znen 150T-F (I think) - repaired engine case (brazed aluminum) after the OEM exhaust broke and took out the ear with it: new 1" header, NCY variator and 12gram sliders. It came with the 12-pole set up originally.

Check the ac voltage from the 3 yellows with the regulator unplugged. Yellow to yellow recede up and at idle.

I will try and do that tonight - supposed to be raining, unfortunately.

I don't see why the voltage should be so low. I wonder if you might have one of the yellows not connected. Or poor connection.

...or inadequate ground.
Steve, note he said 'brush against ground' not "ground it" That black wire adjusts the output of the Reg/Reg. Grounding maxes it out. It can't stay grounded. John explained this to me a couple weeks ago. I'm just helping clarify!
