[QUOTE="SmartSolutionsLLC, post: 8867799, member: 690619"] basically except the water in this metaphor would only move through the hose if something was pulling it from the other end and if their is no load on the other end it will just compensate and the pully will have less resistance and generate less power it's not going to just build up extra power and melt if that was the case the factory alternators would do the same thing. In my camaro the 250 amp stock alternator would be generating almost nothing when heated seats, lighting, audio, etc are not being used. Having them restrung for higher output just allows them to generate it when needed it doesn't make them stuck full throttle generating energy and wasting gas for no reason. [/QUOTE]
