what wire for light? (Honda GX620)

[mowisme]

I got the motor running good and quite sure its charging (will check at battery tomorrow)..But by looking at the wiring schematic I'm really not sure which wire if any where I can run a small led light off? Before or after rectifier/reg? It's a 20amp Honda GX620- Thanks

IMO, You'd be better off running a separate circuit.....

From battery pos post or battery post on starter solenoid to a 15/20 amp in-line fuse, Run to a cigarette lighter plug or toggle switch depending which style light you have (portable/mounted).

This way doesn't put any extra draw on the unit wire harness and gives full 12.5+ volts to the light.....

Thanks Rob- I got 12v coming to my switch from the battery..Can I just tap into that before it gets to switch or right at switch?

What amp fuse is in the main harness ?

Rob- I got a 20A in main harness just before switch. thanks

Go ahead and tie in to the switch wire, If you have any issues you can later run a separate wire if needed.....
