Is there anybody having experience or thougts aboat the The VRRPM series rectifier / voltage regulators? I wonder if I should invest this for my cb500T?
Unless you have switched out all your lights (especially the headlight) to lower wattage LED's, don't count on using a USB charger. You will drain your battery in no time.
These bikes have alternators that barely provide enough electricity to power the bike and charge the battery as is. Even then it won't charge until you've hit 3000 rpm.
By the way that R/R unit from Common Motor is way over priced
I did the Kohler type reg/rec upgrade and I can run for a couple of hours with light on low and a USB charger for my phone and have 12.6V when I turn it off.
Original lights.
