Do Alternators Change in Engine Load?
I've seen more than one person recommend the reduction of electricity consumption (stereo, lights, etc.) as an FE technique. I thought the alternator's load on the engine was a constant factor, and if so, those recommendations do not make sense to me.
Is the alternator's load on the engine different, depending on how much electricity the vehicle is using?
