[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 7817012, member: 634282"] You just never know with electrical components/parts.Brand new, have lasted me as much as a week(alternator,a battery 4months) due to issues with the brand new units bought.I went through 4 alternators before I actually got one that worked properly on a 93 civic from Orileys,and 2 sets of Brand New Redtop Batteries(no longer as good as the old ones,Costco even dropped from selling them)Ive had a stock alt last 3yrs on a 4yr old battery??Its always a gamble with electrical, but you take preventive measures to ensure better current flow,and constant voltage regulation.If you ever have to replace the stock alt.,i recommend getting the biggest one over the counter you can get,before upgrading to an expensive HO alt.And get a good batt.Hell you might be just fine for 1-2 yrs, or you may be only a week away from replacement..Who Actually Knows??
