I am still running a generator and for some reason I keep blowing light bulbs. I have the new style regulator and I think I might needs to polarize it. Can anyone tell me how?

Well didn't figure out the problem but I found a temp solution for the weekend. Un hook the generator for short times at night to run the lights and hook it back up on a beer break to charge:idea:
