Mabye you could use it in your M109. To run comm equipment. I think a regular 60 has plenty of power to run a truck and trailor lights.

if it;s the M998 200 Ampper, 12V output is a big one!

i think that is what it is. one Regulator has a 12v output.emmado22 said:
do you know where to get those regulators? I wonder how much?
I found out that one of the alternators is bad. the other works fine.

Those are seen on the HUMMV ambulance models. They have A/C, lots of radio and lighting demand as well. Reputation is touchy, one burnt to the ground due to a fault in the alternator right on the NG base in Phoenix.

200 amps wont hurt a 60 am system. There are several different versions of the 200 amper with the 12/24V output. The later ones are fine. There was a SOU message out there that had the SN's of the bad ones. Regulaors can be found on ebay cheap. All new new and rebuilt humvees have the 200 ampper in it. One say I'll swap mine out when I get a free moment.

oh, I guess the guy at the alternator shop gave me the wrong info.
He said it was for a tach or whatever. I have a programmable VDO tach that will measure the cycles of an alternator to give an RPM reading.
the posts on the regulator are as follows
AC
IGN
14V
on the Alternator
28v
ground
