Daniel is good people and makes a nice alternator. He is pretty much a 1 man operation, from the building to the shipping.

He has been a user on this site for the longest time but hasnt posted recently that I recall, probably busy.

Now he should rebuild my 3 old DC Powers for my word of recommendation.

If I wasnt so loyal to Singer, US alts are definitely what would be under my hood. No question.

Im personal friends with one of his reps and two of his dealers. I LOVE what I see from US.

First of all thank you for your comments!
I believe that Daniel should be a nice guy (i mean he drives a mercedes :lol: ).
But has somebody long-term experience with the alts? (Cant find anything about the company)
Since i am located in the other side of earth this would be the most important "question".

I have already a Singer but Mike has no HairPin Option for my car, so if i trade my Singer with another alt it should be at least so reliable :)

Thank you and best regards

He hasn't been in business long enough to have long term results, that's why you can't find any.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

I have had an alt of theirs in my car for several months. Works just as it did the day it was installed and has power behind it to feed my amps. I love all the help they have given me. Very very helpful.

Daniel is a great guy for sure. I blew up my GP alt at slamology and he came over and bullshit with me while I changed it out with my spare. Definitely knows his shit. When I buy a new alt, I'll be going with him no doubt.
