Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
You purchased the Double-alt.com unit and installed it? What wiring mods did you have to do to use his alt? I don't have a problem using it but I do have concerns about dropping it in place of mine and frying something in my truck. I can't risk damaging my truck to try a new product. To risky to my pocket book! Was it really just a plug and play install, As it just install the 12 / 24v and ground leads and not use the regulator + supply and field wire off the regulator? Please let me know if this is the case. If it is I might get one also.
Complete plug and play. All I used was the 12/24/Ground leads already on the truck. Been running that alternator a few thousand miles already with no electrical issues. The fact that’s off-the-shelf parts, it can be rebuilt anywhere in the world. You can’t do that with the original alternator. Give Rob a call, you won’t regret it.
I didn’t change a thing ... I still get the charging system light in the dash but the system is charging fine. The light is from the load and battery control box.
I have not. Not a lot of water in my area. More of a desert environment.
So... you can't tell if the batteries are charging or not when driving down the road? Or are you telling yourself you can from the voltage gauge, which I suppose would be true.
Tested all my gauges and most of them work
... but in all seriousness I been keeping an eye on the batteries this whole time. Been to Cabo and back with the same alternator. If they weren’t charging I would still be in Cabo lol. It works perfect. Just have to try it out if you don’t believe me. I make no money advertising Ron. Just trying to help out. If I connect the AC cable to the 12v alt terminal, will that shutoff the light?
Yes LBCD ....N2003 Load Battery Control Device........the Box with 4 threaded terminals on top that wires between batteries and vehicle loads. I forget sometimes to fully label when using abbreviations.
