meade916 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 MLA module is not for sale.....i will use it again in one of my other rides eventually - its a nice unit and i dont want to part with it. Ok time for the real reason i am posting - this thing works great! I will add these pics to the first post also so they are all together. A nice "resting" voltage A few wires ran and soldered into the system - this is a VERY easy piece to hook up but it still takes a little work when you have 4 alts. No big deal! i will eventually move it to a better spot but this is actually not bad here.....i dont see myself adjusting the voltage very often but its nice to know i can if i want too It works great so far!

kingsuv Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Looks sexi Can't wait to get both mine in Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulman07 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Your voltage regulator becomes a pass through for this module when you use all of the terminals on the Vreg. One makes contact with the field,the other with the stator, also you have remote turn on, and of course 1 wire would connect to your battery terminal. (typically how external regulators work & the MLA module) So once the exciter kicks the alternators on and supply the initial amount of voltage to start them, your alternator kind of takes it away from there. There's an adjustment on the module that kind of tells the alternators how hard to work. So it's usually a fairly simple process when done correctly I know very little about electrical theory when it comes to alternators or mini generators as I like to call them. Essentially an MLA is somewhat of the same with an external regulator and similar to this product as well. Most MLA's operate on set point voltages though where as you have flexibility and ease of changing your voltage with this product and most adjustable regulators. Edit: to answer newls question... there would be no need for an MLA module at this point in the system. I'm pretty sure they would coincide together just fine. There's no purpose for it though...

meade916 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 drove to work this morning, it was SOLID.....no fluctiations, no battery light , a steady 15.5. This thing came in major handy because my PILE OF $h#t stinger voltage meter started malfunctioning about a month ago. In the last year, have watched at LEAST 6 of them malfunction of flat out stop working for no reason..... so anyway its nice to have the module, even nicer to get my readout back! Thanks to the guys at XS for letting me give the prototype a test spin! So far so good fellas!

loganberry Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 so is this actually a volt meter too? or just shows you what you have your alternators output voltage set at?

meade916 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 no bro you set the "ceiling" on it and from then on, its a voltage meter - Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!
