Stator :

Several tests have been conducted which show that there is excessive heat generated in the stator circuitry. This heat can be damaging if it not controlled. By removing the nylon (black epoxy) overcoat from the stator frame and coils, the heat can dissipate away from the stator windings. Also, the charge coils on some stators have been positioned differently in order to protect the sensitive capacitor charge coils which can be heat affected. All this means longer life and dependability, not to mention a generous 2 year warranty.

Power pack / Switch box :

Being one of the most common ignition component failures, a power pack/switch box is usually in high demand. It is strongly advised that on some applications using two switch boxes, that you replace both at the same time. The bias circuit must remain protected and why replacing both is suggested to keep a brand new power pack from being burned out by the other old one. Yup, these components are also better manufactured and have a 2 year warranty.

Voltage regulator / rectifier :

The charging components of your outboard motor are very important to make sure you don't get stuck with a dead battery. These new parts are made to withstand the most demanding conditions with added accesories by containing an internal fusible link to reduce the probablility of fire damage commonly caused by a shorted red hot regulator. The boater does need to be aware though that a particular motor is only designed to provide so much charge output, and putting a big strain (excessive boat accessories) on a small system is not advised. Tip: Water cooled regulators obviously require adequate water supply to be cooled. Make sure your water pump is in good condition at all times to help prevent regulator/rectifier failure.
