I guess you missed my post lol, one of two things is happening

Bad connection or bad alt

That explains the voltage drop with low output current regardless of what amp is connected. OR there is a output delay due to PCM control.

I checked the connections and nothing ^seemed* loose or dangerous, but I didn't go over with a fine tooth comb by any means. I'd believe the lag: but this is 5-10 second issue we are talking about. Do you think that is still a possibility?

I was also thinking about the bad alt, since the power is almost exactly 2/3 what it should be - like a bad winding or something.

Greg: if you want to come up to my house one of these days, we take a really detailed look at everything

When I tested internal reg alts it took min of 10 secs for them to pick up output from a large pull over 200 amps. But since you are pulling less I would stand to guess it is connections or not enough grounding or bad ground.

Here is another way to look at this.

The amplifier is going to draw current directly from the alternator. It is
going to draw as much as it can until the alt is tapped out. If the amp
still wants more power, then it is going to get into the battery
reserve. Theoretically, the D3100 should be able to power the rf2500 by
itself even without the alternator.

You could very easily have a bad alternator and a bad battery.

I understand that this isn't the point of the topic but like Audiofanatics said, if your amp is protecting on a 15sec burp with a single D3100, car on or off, you have other issues to worry about than the alt not putting out max amperage.

I will check it tomorrow exactly as you suggested. Thanks for the help. I know all the connections are good because I just put in my new Shok Competition 0-ga today. But I will go over ever connection, every ground, every everything tomorrow with a fine-toothed comb before calling DC on Monday.
