Reason why I don't buy from Ebay...


Recommended Posts

This is why I troll on companies sometimes...

If the the alternator is truely 220A, then why do I have to put on a smaller pulley over the drive pulley..

Dear carshateme,

This alternator will give you 220A in high RPM not idle and in 1200RPM if you install very small pulley over drive pulley and you get 220A in 1200RPM,Thanks

Dear powermaxusa,

Hi, I just recently purchased this alternator, which states that there is an output of 220amps at 1,200 engine rpm..I just wanted to let you guys know that there is NO way that it is doing that much...maybe 104amps. because I have the alternator in my car and it can't even take up my stock electrical.

Textbook case of: you get what you pay for :(

Edit: POS alert #1 is that they say to use 4ga for a "220 amp" alternator.

This has nothing to do with eBay. This is just buying shit equipment with high expectations.
