Fastest production truck!

Q: nobulltrans@mchsi.com writes not in modern systems the voltage regulator has a sense lead that is connected directly to the battery terminal electrically if you install diode isolators the regulator will raise the alternator output intil it senses normal voltage across the batteries well now see i just learned something. thanks for the insight. i still wouldnt suggest parallelling batteries tho unless you plan on spending the dollars to do it correctly. theres a lot more to it than just hooking the two together. i admit that im stupid but help me out here. agricultural and construction equipment/ large trucks ect have run multiple batteries in parallel for decades without any kind of isolators. why do you need to do it different in a little truck not arguing just wondering. denny you dont -- the cells that are lowest will take more of the current until theyre fully-charged. as they charge to the setting the maximum voltage is set to the current will taper-off. bryan .
