skittlesRgood Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 for electronics... i wouldnt go over 16v for the battery, keep it below 15v Quote If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude.

skittlesRgood Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 i am now going to tell you the general rule we have here about higher voltages, and recommend you follow it: "if you have to ask, you shouldn't do it."

EdgarG0721 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 yeah thanks its cause i was thinking about getting a mechman alternator with the voltage adjuster but they only make 200 amp. The worst thing is my car alternator died today i was gonna order one from dc 270 amobut they have a 4 to 6 week wait on them and mechman doesnt. So i tought about just getting the mechman and run a high voltage but im just gonna go to the junkyard and wait for the dc alt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Did you call Mechman or only check the website? Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
