Has anyone tried rewrapping the Lighting coil to get more juice?
Barring that.
Has anyone tried replacing the lighting coil with a bigger coil from another bike?
 
It can probably be done. Electrical things are my down side though, don't know much about it. I would think though that it would work.

They do make higher voltage coils for the Blaster. The Dt has a higher output stator also that goes right into he Blaster. I am sure there are other stators that would work... What ones ?????
 
I think one would have to take into consideration the size/strength of the magnets, to be able to provide the needed magnetic flux.
 
I've seen talk on other forums about someone rewrapping them for banshees.

I have a 75 watt lighting coil in mine, I think it was from Trail Tech or Ricks Motorsports.
it runs both my trail tech 35 watt halogen lights at the same time, and 6 individual LED tail and brake lights out back.
4 in my cfm airbox for brakes and 2 in my frame rail ends as running lights

the only one I can find now is from ricky stator

and yes, there are formulas and even calculators for determining windings

punch in the properties of the stock coil, and a little math with one of the calculators should get you whats needed to increase the wattage of a new winding.

thanks for the links Awk. Those calculators are awesome. for 53 bucks it's almost no savings to wrap my own.

yeah, $53 is hard to beat vs. the time you'd have involved
