and that is realtime, no time to measure...it is there at all times. like a thread to a pc. In away, the gain is hugely underestimated as you have written. I mean, that power is going to go to the coil..stronger fire...all kinds of stuff goes with the gain.
the mystery with the keyword "diode" and dispersal of what the alternator is producing becomes cleaner. I cannot really put into words what I deciphered. It is not simple.. I can say that. I am guessing, the same 5 year routine of rust spots won't return ...
awesome thread. I never thought something this simple would go as far as it is in my own old car.
