[QUOTE="TheBigPilferer, post: 8863494, member: 690294"] .2v is completely normal. What will happen when you exceed your alternators capacity is your voltage will then drop to 12.6-12.8 immediately bc your battery is the next source of power and that is the voltage it rests at. Without knowing your alternator amperage, I can't really say at what point this will happen with any certainty, but it's safe to assume that adding 2000 additional watts will definitely be well past this point. The only solution is a high output alternator or a lithium bank. [/QUOTE]
