Subject: Re: Amps from generator?


How did you measure the amp output? Most household multimeters will not measure large amperages. Is it possible you're getting 17 VOLTS out of the alternator (possibly because of a failed internal voltage regulator) and your battery has an internal or single-cell failure (possibly caused by the overvoltage) that causes it to go dead? How old is the battery? --------------------- John R.
