Would u no by chance what a name brand alty would cost vs my 300 dollar eBay alty?

Hit Mike up for a quote. You will most likely pay more than 300 bucks but you wont have to worry about it crapping out on you like you would with a random ebay alt. Expect to pay between $400-600. A unit from mike would probably be on the lower end of that scale compared to Mechman or DC power.

EDIT: when i say "lower end of that scale" i mean you will probably pass less for a singer unit than mech or DC :)

600 jeeeezuz I know u get what u pay for but ummmmm for 600 I can buy 2 eBay 250amp Alty!

Sure there great but I'm not pulling money out my well u get the picture!

You could look at it like that. BUT realize that a decent unit from singer, mechman or DC will more than likely last the life of the vehicle , if not exceed it. An ebay alt is a toss up. It might last a year, might crap out after a week. Why keep pissing money away and dealing with the hassle of troubleshooting problems on junk ebay alts when you can buy a unit that will not only last but save you time and effort dealing with the problems inherent to cheat alts?
