This is what I do with my alternator kill switch. On a good long downhill or breaking situation, I bump start, put it in gear, watch the O2 sensor reading, and flip on the alternator. No fuel burned, power generated, and I have a kind of crude regenerative breaking. Inferior to the real deal regenerative systems, but wicked cheap!
