[QUOTE="TaylorFade, post: 7806308, member: 618111"] Externally regulated alt, external regulator, step down, 16v batts. You can skip the step down if you have a dedicated secondary alt for the system. But SubZero is right, "16v" means 17v+ charging just like "12v" charges at 14v+. Go shopping. Also not sure why VisceralSounds said 16v is useless. Amps love voltage. Well, some of them. Make sure your amps are 18v stable. [/QUOTE]
