In Reply To DC Power Alternator Updates? posted by fuzzymonkey on February 07, 2015 at 05:08 AM
     
Message I know we've been emailing but I thought I'd post an update as well.

Everything's going strong after a year or so with my DC Power alt! As long as I have enough tension on the alternator belt, I see voltages in the 14's and low 15's at idle. The alternator varies voltage depending on temperature, load, etc.

Purchasing was a PITA but it's been worth it.

Before upgrading I would go through almost 1 battery per year. I tried an Optima Red Top, Interstate, and a couple Deka batteries. It turns out that my oem alternators were only supplying 12.5-13v at idle. Then the voltage regulator on one alternator cooked...

Totally happy with my DC Power Alternator, 2 amps, underdrive crank pulley, and Maxima e-fans!
