[QUOTE="Zavenoa, post: 8106368, member: 654283"] So I charged it up to around 85% earlier, then went on a half hour drive on the highway, pushing the system, just plugged it in and my batts at 24%. God I hope the big 3 at least reduces this drain. I tried doing it the other day, but that POS jack that comes with the car scares the crap outa me, I'm never getting under the thing using that jack ever again, I picked up a 2 ton hydraulic jack today so I'll be able to get under there and get to the alternator at the right angle. Will update, I know it's going to help a ton, but I just can't believe it will be enough on it's own. I really don't want to drop like $450 on a new alt, a high output batt is $220, but I'm guessing I will see minimal performance increase with the batt upgrade in comparison to the HO alt and big 3.
