Mechman Alternators

The Highest Output Alternator is Not Always the Best Option!!!


Recommended Posts

maybe instead of just posting, get the biggest one that will fit! we should recommend contacting the person who is going to make your alternator.then you can explain what your set up is going to be.Me personally, i wouldn't just order an alt online without research and talking to someone. even though one place tried to sell me a quad setup for running 10k. Talked to Singer afterwards,and he said ,i have 1 that will run your system no problem! never looked back! Excellent info in this thread also :good:

1 alt cant support 10k. it can help recharge batteries that support 10k. i woulda gone with 4 alts if you had the chance.

i was actually leaning more towards running 2 alts, but was told to see how the 1 would hold up before spending more money.I never play at idle,or compete so i guess that helps a lot.

idle or not, 1 big alt can prolly support at most, 3-4k depending on how many accessories your vechicle has. and depenign on rpm and heat. the more alts you have the less batts you have to carry saving wear and tear and gas :) yes 1 alt will work but youll be holding bat votlage
