[QUOTE="ahole-ic, post: 7391574, member: 619324"] The alternator is not a battery charger. It doesn't monitor the battery voltage. When the vehicle is on, and the voltage is up around 14v, it doesn't matter if there is a battery there or not. The battery doesn't filter any high ripple and it doesn't filter any low ripple above 12.8v... so there is still plenty of ripple in the line. All this "an alternator does 50%" is TOTAL BS and you're showing how little you know about the electrical system. Please stop trying to help people and educate yourself. [/QUOTE]
