Voltage and Wattage

[Deeznutz34]

Hey guys, so I have a question about what kinda wattage I might be losing with my stock regulator keeping me @ around 13.8v? Wiring, power, batteries, alternator are all good and there's no parasitic draw. But I can't seem to get my voltage to stay above 13.8v.

Look up ohms law booboo

@will77530 yea that doesn't help me

And your question doesn’t provide all the information to answer it now does it

Um, how much more information does one need? I need 14.4v, I'm only getting 13.8v due to my stock regulator. How much am I losing due to that .6v of a loss?

Maybe if you look up ohms law you’ll see you need information to calculate the loss

Scv3000d amp @ .5 ohm, 240 h.o. alternator, 1/0 ofc with dual runs to the amp, 2 agm batteries. What else you want to know?

You got a sister or hot mom by chance?

Now let’s use ohms law

ideally you have 240a which we know you don’t so let’s say 200a now multiply that by your voltages 

how much is the difference tada maf dun answered your question

Why do you need 14.4?
