Re: [DML] TOO MUCH POWER?



The 180A alternator I just installed keeps the needle
at 12 when idle, and a little above when the car is
moving.  On the Digital meter, it is 11.5V at idle,
and as I rev up to about 2500 RPM it tops out right
below 14V.  This was with a weak battery, so I suspect
when the battery has a full charge the idle voltage
will be a bit higher.

If in doubt, hook a real digital meter to the battery.
 If you are getting over 14V, you have a problem that
could damage the battery and other electrical
components in the car.
