I had the same thoughts when I returned the Chinese copy and bought the real thing myself....

I need to get a VAT40 on this thing and check with the incandescent and the LED.

your alt may not be producing full voltage at low RPM's...
what does it do w/the HL on too?
LED's draw significantly less power!
You mean the pulley is too big, right? A smaller pulley would spin the alternator faster...heirfaus wrote:So at 2000 RPM's ALL my accessories (except turn signals) are pulling just over 40 amps from my alternator at 14.4 volts. If I dump the throttle the alternator drops to 30amps so it is now drawing about 10 amps of juice off my battery and voltage drops from 14.4 to 12.8ish. Pulley on alternator is obviously too small. I figure I can either swap pulleys, or make the electrical more efficient.

Water Cooled, Re-designed Top, Same Price.
Available now in limited colors, this revamp features water cooling ports (patent pending) three bottom air ports and two top air ports. Water ports are not required for operation, but come in handy if you are road racing, the top hat is close to the turbine housing/down pipe or you have an engine bay that doesn't get a lot of airflow. Air and Water ports are clearly marked so there is no confusion.
