STEvil Posted November 12, 2012 Report Posted November 12, 2012 Anyone know of a manufacturer/remanufacturer/custom builder that rates based on continuous output ratings? None of the ones i've looked into seem to do that yet (mechman, dc, EA, etc... pretty much all the "known" ones). Would be great to know as continous output rated devices are more likely to last than peak output. Might have to look into a custom generator mount at this rate..

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
SnowDrifter Posted November 12, 2012 Report Posted November 12, 2012 I don't know if they are rated at continuous output, but the DC I have blows air through it like a fan - I can feel air coming out of it. Never been able to get it beyond warm Out of curiosity, what hellish application is this? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
STEvil Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Posted November 12, 2012 Just one without the option to charge the batteries to give the alternator time off from its job.

SnowDrifter Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 Not sure what you are saying? You want a 100% duty cycle alt so you have the option of not charging batteries? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
STEvil Posted November 13, 2012 Author Report Posted November 13, 2012 Its not an option, there is no electrical outlet to use to charge the batteries when on the job.

ric006 Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 sounds like you want a portable generator
STEvil Posted November 13, 2012 Author Report Posted November 13, 2012 If I wanted that i'd buy that lol MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..."

SnowDrifter Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 Still confused on what you are using this alt for... Are you charging dead batteries with it or something? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
TeamHT Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 Charging directly from the alt Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
