[QUOTE="sexy, post: 7075262, member: 612355"] batteries are for storage only they do not make power There is always some idiot trying to sell batteries on this site. A 200 amp alt will usually make less power than a stock alternator at idle that’s a fact. Now in terms an electrician can understand put an amp probe on your batteries positive wire turn your stuff all on see how many amps your pulling if its 120 amps then get an alt that does 135ish you can get 140s 160s and even 180s from a junk yard for around $25 and take them to an auto parts store to test them to make sure they work good before you waste time putting them in. I like 2000 and newer escalade alts because they do 160 and up to 180 amps and I can put them in a ford or jeep or anything I want. What you will damage by low voltage is usually going to be an amplifier first. [/QUOTE]
