300 tdi second alternator
adamdanshona:
I have been thinking of fitting a second alternator where the air con pump would be .
I found a kit onhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Land-Rover-300TDI-2nd-Alternator-Bracket_W0QQitemZ260506105442QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item3ca75fb662ebay.
My question is how do you wire to a single battery?Does it matter what output? and do you have to regulate what current is going to your battery?what size cables etc?
Any help would be greatful ,many thanks in advance.
mark-d:
depends what your trying to acheive?
i personaly dont see the point
mattyme:
you can upgrade from the standard 60 amp to a 100 amp alternator which would be an easier option.
i run 2 batteries thru a diode split charge box. the second battery runs the winch, stereo, inverter and roof lights.... works for me!!

Hi, wots the alternator? I have a 300Tdi and want a good one. Is it an upgrade?
Cheers

I was going to upgrade the alternator to a 100 amp one ,and as I would have the old one to hand I thought I could use it.
It is my intension to have a split charging system at some point.I thought I could use the second alternator to charge the second battery at a later stage.
I have a 1kw inverter which I will be powering off the second battery.
