My alternator is still fully connected. It just runs so little (since the engine is mostly off) that it can't keep up with the charging. Honda's electrical systems are built on a "just enough" philosophy, and I'm really pushing that past its limit. It's a 51R battery, about 1/2 the size of many other cars. I'm using 1-2 kwh a tank, so it's not much.
going up?
Stopping? NEVER!
This next one will be even better. That's likely the limit, though. This summer has been HOT HOT HOT, which helps the mpg. I'm starting school dropoff service next week, and then cooler weather comes.
Thanks, guys!
