Installing one wire alternator
Very helpful information. As noted on Powermaster website data, a lot of misconceptions about how alternators work. Those with experience and the engineers among us know all this, (power curves and such) but average users don't. Use for my application is somewhat unique as even in normal conditions, engine runs fast and slow, and as setup is only going to do much charging when running fast. Good news is it only has to top up battery for starting, and when running at night, keep up with the big array of front lights. But that is one of times when engine is running 1,500 to 2,000 RPM's. And knowing what is needed, operator can keep it geared down to keep engine RPM's up. Running fast not a bad thing......for a lot of reasons.
