Nathan @ XSpower Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 thanks for the reply does the .5 of a volt help that much? Its really more than just a .5 volt. Most alternators fluctuate their voltage charge. I have seen them from 13v up to 15V and then back down on a regular alternator. The VCM regulate the voltage to as steady of a voltage regulation that you can get. So, if you have it set on 14.9V and your alternator would have regularly dropped down to 13.9v, then you have a 1v difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
