[QUOTE="MakeshiftAudio, post: 6068233, member: 608963"] See, this confuses me... The alternator charges at a voltage of about 14.4V with x amps. (Theoretically) In a case with my setup in which I have 4 runs of 4/0, where I can run some 350A about 20' with .32V drop, will it be pulling the current from the alternator as much as it can until it reaches down to the voltage of the D3100s, which are charged by the alt to 14.4? Will the load be distributed between the batts and the alt, or what? This confuses me, I'm more of a digital person and RF analog, not generators. :P [/QUOTE]
