This for Don Gordon - you need to run an electrical load analysis before
you get any further with an alternator.  There were two load analyses
published in the Network News, one by Jim Frantz and mine.  (See LNN
Issue 16, Aug/Sept 95, pages 196/197.)  Jim's loads were heavier than
mine with his alternator being a 60A while mine is a 35A Nippondenso.  A
good source for alternators is Landoll Electric in Oklahoma City.  The
brackets he supplies are high quality, and several friends in the RV
community are using the regulator Landoll supplies.  (That's RV as in
airplane, not SUV.)  My 35A is controlled by the (expensive) B&C
regulator, and it's working fine.  As expected, it's a tad shy when the
hydraulic pump is running, but that's just for seconds at a time (the low
voltage light comes on).

This for all - Happy New Year!
