1. question here folks.

Are the few of you that are saying "We got a Winner here", "Works flawlessly" Etc, Load testing the things and checking actual output on a full load vs voltage @ XXXX RPM etc?

 

[mk_ 10+ year member]

No, however no problems when using system the way I want to use it is enough for me.

So rented shop space is your defining goal between a good up-and-coming business, and a bad one?

well read the rest of my post; I mentioned other factors as well, however not operating out of a shop is not a good sign (to say the least).

ah.. the idiocy of the youth. i would venture this "shed" has everything he needs to properly build an alt (actually.. maybe not, as it seems the alts ****) however, it SHOULD. if him working out of a "shed" keeps the cost down to YOU, the consumer, why would you care? oh, thats right you wouldnt (provided of course the alts worked worth a ****) do you HONESTLY think if the guy rented shop space he would build a better alt?

And to add to that I believe a rather large computer company started out in a garage, so "shop" has NO bearing on the success of a company or quality of their product....

My EA alt is going strong after 2 years and Nate was fine to deal with. I'll buy an EA for my next vehicle.

Businesses all have to start somewhere.

Raytheon was started in a garage.

they all **** unless they are honest . i have mine built local. BTW learn to work on cars MOB, what kinda man are you, cant change an alt. unless u own a ferrari or something sophisticated then ill understand it but cmon A FORD!

The guy from EA seems like he went to a far length to try to help you out. Im guessing there was a bad batch or the installed was doing something wrong but seriously, you cant install your own alt?

I found it funny how you draw a conclusion that I am young based upon what I wrote.

I do care what the shop looks like as it is a indication of how serious the man is about what he does. I would not invest in a business that does not invest in itself.

You said why would you care what is shop looked like, well as this thread proves it is a SAFER bet going with someone who isn't a "professional" shade tree mechanic.

Would you take your kids to a surgeon if he didn't work in a hospitable, but worked out of his garage... which was a mess, where he was wearing a t-shirt and jeans and performed operations in the back yard...of course not.

NOW I KNOW THIS A BIT EXTREME, however you didn't seem to get the point so I hope this underlines it for you.

Perhaps my view point is wrong and immature, yet I'm not the one w/ my c@ck in my had, a under preforming alt and a lighter billfold, so it would appear that my childish view is working quite well for me.
