Not sure what all this means yet, as in what values are acceptable or not..</a>(apologies for sending you off to the CandyButtAssociation site, but I can't get tables to post nicely here..)Some observations:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol"> </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Voltage output is higher at idle than at 5k rpm. I would have thought output should rise with rpm? </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">I have 0.7 to 0.9 ohms resistance from RR output, red wire, and power fuse hot side. Meter lead resistance compensated - .9 ohms sounds kind of high, not sure though. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Voltage drop between RR output and battery terminals is less essentially zero with key off. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Voltage drop between RR output and battery terminals is 0.4 vdc when key is on, engine off. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Voltage drop between RR output and battery terminals varies from 0.6 to 0.9 Vdc, engine and fans running. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">RR current output is ~25 amps, with greatest output at idle. </li> </ol>Has anyone else noticed greater output at idle rather than 5k rpm?</blockquote>
