[QUOTE="timelessr1, post: 4093797, member: 583758"] Hey Mikey....are you 100% sure about this? Since the alt. lead is going to the main fuse block, and at the block it splits to go to the battery, and to the rest of the car. So basically while the car is running the battery becomes a load just like the rest of the car. Now if the car (system) exceeds the power that is given by the alt, then the remaining amount will be supplied by the battery. When that extra large draw is finished the battery becomes a load again and recharges. So in essence the Alt is the power source. The only time it isnt the power source is when the car is off. So bascially when the cars running you can even pull your pattery out and the car will keep running as long as you never drain more then the Alt can supply [/QUOTE]
