Vespa electrical parts and additional headlights PX / PE

The additional headlights for Vespa, as well as all the other customizations of the electrical parts, are extremely important to be able to tackle a long journey such as a world tour on a Vespa efficiently and safely.

Apart from the efficiency of the electrical components of the engine, such as the electronic control unit and the stator , I performed a series of additional interventions described in the following paragraphs:

– Headlight replacement with Vespa PX / PE halogen headlight

12V gel battery

– Battery charge and voltage regulator

– Double USB socket and cigarette lighter

– 12V direct current system control unit with fuses

The choice was to split the electrical system into two parts, i.e. keeping the existing one exactly as it was originally, managed by a voltage regulator that is placed between the stator and all the utilities (arrows, front light and rear light). . In addition, a specific voltage and charge regulator has been mounted which powers a 12v gel battery and which in turn powers the satellite navigator, the additional front headlights and the USB and cigarette lighter sockets.

Halogen headlight for Vespa PX / PE

The original headlight with external glass cap has been replaced with a Vespa halogen headlight of the most recent versions and modified to accommodate a 35 watt halogen bulb and the LED position light bulb.

This solution makes it possible to have a halogen headlight much lighter than the original, with a highly reflective cap and therefore with an extremely high illumination yield.

Vespa’s additional headlights

To support the front headlight, two additional LED headlights for Vespa were installed, positioned in the lower part of the front luggage rack.

The support brackets allow independent adjustment of the two lights, both horizontally and vertically.

The ignition is managed by a special switch positioned inside the case and not outside, this to allow greater protection from dust and other atmospheric events of all components, such as this ignition switch.

A control unit for the power supply that arrives from the battery and its sorting to the different devices has been positioned inside the top case.

This control unit is equipped with internal fuses to protect against short circuits and overloads and a switch for disconnecting the battery when not necessary. With the battery disconnected, the charge controller continues to charge the battery. On the dashboard and more precisely under the ignition key, a blue LED light has been positioned which remains lit when the battery is connected and therefore active.

Always with the aim of protecting the equipment, a mobile cable of about 50 cm starts from the control unit, which powers a double USB port, a cigarette lighter socket and a voltmeter . These sockets have been kept mobile in order to be able to extract them from the case only when necessary.

Vespa rear additional led light

As a last step, an additional LED Vespa rear light was provided that is not powered by the battery but, given the low consumption, connected directly in parallel to the original rear light.

The auxiliary headlight is also equipped with both a position light and a brake light.

To position it, a special bracket has been set up in the rear luggage rack of the Vespa.

All the products used for setting up the Vespa are also visible in the Vespup online store and can be purchased in the main marketplaces such as eBay and Amazon .
