Gocartnut95 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Alrighty then! i just got my truck on the road and want to start upgrating the battery and everything else. when i put just my turn signal on my votlag drops about 2 volts... Its pretty said... well my first question is to go with a kinetik 1800? or an XS D1200? Right now i just have a stock altinator but i found this online or i can send mine out to someone i know to get it juice up a bit. This is the one i found http://stores.channeladvisor.com/db-starter-alternator/items/item.aspx?itemid=1563440 But i really need to upgrate when i need to run 2400 watts, Tons of lights, Heat, and and electrick plow... So please i really need peoples sugestions and opions on these ideas. Thanks, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DC Power Kyle Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Holy fucking interests batman! I would stay away from db electric... PEAK output of 110 amps...

HA. expect 110 at idle after putting it in the freezer for 20 mins. Well i didn't expect that altinator to be great but its better then my stock 75 amp.... What could you get me for generally around $200 that would fit a 5.0 302 ford motor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DC Power Kyle Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Honestly, save up and get something that's good quality. You DO get what YOU pay for in the alternator world. Well, most of the time anyways.... depending on the company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotspl? Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 They call them DC custom for a reason... dude talk to DC and ask them the price to build one for your truck it will cost the same amount as if you bought a prebuilt from them Quote Team Bassick HU: Pioneer DEH-4200UB Front: Pioneer TS-A1683R Rear: Pioneer TS-T110 Amp: Kicker KX600.4 Subs: PSI 18" Platform 1 Amp: Audiopipe 1500D Electrical: Big III, Stinger SPV-40, Stock ALT SCORE: N/A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skittlesRgood Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 DC dosn't even have an alternator for my truck.. if your just going off the website then they dont have one for my car either... but i have a dc alt in my car lol. call them and ask. dc makes the strongest alts. mechman is the only other company i would trust. and db electric... we have seen guys come here with alt problems from them. some of the alts do less power at idle than your stock alt and actually underpower the car. even without a system.

So please i really need peoples sugestions and opions on these ideas. Thanks, Ryan We have a 220 amp unit for your truck for $299 shipped. It is 100% brand new, made in the USA, and features our overdrive pulley, solid copper rectifier, and oversize charge terminal STANDARD. It will definitely be higher quality than what you get from DB, and I have it IN STOCK for plow season. You will need to upgrade to zero gauge positive AND ground cables from the alternator to the battery. If you REALLY want to supercharge your plow action, I would go with one of our 14 volt batteries and 14 volt alternator. This will keep your voltage between above 15.0 volts, even when moving the plow. It will give you much brighter lights, and much faster plow action. The 14 volt batteries are $249, and the 14 volt module for the alternator is $75. Quote 1-888-MECHMAN www.Mechman.com [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
