[QUOTE="Spectragod, post: 1409155, member: 32367"] Not sure what you want to hear, the alternator will put out roughly 120 amps @ idle, your truck just simply running will use 30-40 amps just to run and operate the electronics required to run the vehicle. If you somehow manage to exceed that 120 amps, you will start consuming power power from the battery. Would I replace that battery, absolutely, it only costs a few dollars more to fly first class. And remember, anything worth doing, is worth over doing. YMMV So the question at hand is..... is your alternator working up to it's full potential? Because that's what your lights and truck are running off of. [/QUOTE]
