Alternator 160a or less 120a cyrix alternator more than 160a 230a cyrix.
Alternator with a solar panel.
Select an appropriate cyrix based on your house battery type and alternator current rating.
Just wondering if the alternator is somewhat reducing gas mileage or if it does reducing the full capacity of the engine coz the alternator is using mechanical energy from the engine to convert it to electrical energy the alternator uses the rotating energy from the engine.
If you need a separate controller because you want to charge a li battery it is difficult to answer.
We add an extra step an.
See how the combination of thermo king s thermolite solar panels and alternator power can be paired to maximize battery performance and reduce costly downtime.
We show you how to install a basic 200 watt solar system.
As the name says it a solar charge controller is intended to be connected to a solar panel.
Additionally when a charge is applied to a house battery bank the cyrix will close and allow current to flow to the starter battery.
It depends on the charge controller and alternator.
Now i have an idea if i remove the alternator and replace it with solar panels would i get more gas mileage or gain.
If so would i gladly spring for the extra 150 or 250 amp alternator.
