friday I discovered that my car battery have more reserve than I think. I did a 200km(120mi) trip whithout my alt belt and the condition were not ideal (10c, rain, whipers at the slowest rate, 30-40km/h side wind and face at the end) but my ewp was in cycle almost all the trip. at the end my battery was at about 11.85v.
that mean that I will do the SMCC economy run without my alt belt
