what does a H/O alt really do

[tjjohnson91 10+ year member]

what it states when i start my car and run it at 14.6V and my system hit it goes down to 13.5 right, does the alt stop the drop of the volts ? and why do people say i should buy more batterys when they are at 12V........... the souce of the power is the alt what the hell

im looking to run a AP3000d to two memphis mojo 15's...... i have one 116ah battery and a starting battery.

if i really want i only turn the amp about half way it drops the volt to 12.9 when reving the ****er up

so my Q is does it stop the volts for dropping even

its going to help voltage drops by being able to charge batteries alot better then MOST stock alts, stock alt has more chance of burning up the increased load on it.

high output alt = more output from your alternator.

Lol. Obvious what it does, though.

As said, it only produces more current to charge your batteries and supply demand.

Before you do anything do the Big 3 (search it) and upgrade your battery under the hood. If you are still having trouble with voltage drop add another battery in the trunk, and if you still have issues a HO alt is a good consideration.

BTW you should probably add another battery in the back if your going to run that ap30001d
