LM317? That's an adjustable series pass regulator, it is *not* the same
as an adjustable regulator for an alternator which regulates the field
current depending on the output voltage.

Sorry, there was no original question. It was spam for a fraud product
or a fake storefront to steal credit cards. Maybe both.

What is the purpose increasing the voltage? Brighter lamps? More
acoustic power? Faster closing windows? Hoter computer?

So, now a moving car has no kinetic energy. A new world of physics.
Of course, the rest of us know it does and that kinetic energy in 99%+
of all cars comes from fossil fuels.

It's quite laughable actually. We're supposed to believe that a guy
who can't even write a post that makes sense has figured out how to
remove friction from a car so that it has enough power to triple the
0-60 time.

Last time, wasn't it the water pump bearing that was supposed to be
consuming 20hp?

I have no complaint with Bosch or about my voltage regulator.. Nor
apparently does anyone else here but you.

You're the one that wants to screw around with voltage regulators.
Mine are working fine.

Let me see here...

For over a year now, over 500 people bought FAKE capacitors without knowing
the truth, and you folks tried to tell me and BOSCH that voltage level is
not important and it's can be easily adjusted with any adjustable
regulator, if it's that easy BOSCH probably won't buy a GB(Great Britain)
regulator. You called my post a garbage, isn't that an insult to the
truth? to BOSCH too?

You don't know that I don't care if you buy my product/service or not,
because I am selling them faster than we can make them. I was only trying
to help you, two days ago, I heard on the radio, the Oil predictor said
next round you will end up paying $10.50/gallon. I hope that won't come
true any time soon. But when it comes, I will refuse to help you, I do not
care for your devalued $$$$.

Then be specific and give your Regulator's part # that you were referring
to, don't be too vague and expect people to read your mind.


It's not the question of " Where does Kinetic Energy come from?"

It's The question of " Why don't you smart people put it to benefit you?"

I think he is trying to imply that 13.8v will not charge your batteries
properly, which might be slightly true, but my 940 produces over 14.1v.
Also the original web site is gone now but I guess it was saying you
should get more MPG with more voltage.

I don't quite understand what the 'adjustable' ones are doing, The IPD
description don't make any sense. How can you prevent light dimming
when the voltage is dropping after the alternator/regulator, by
increaseing the regulation voltage?? You would want to decrease it, you
cannot regulate 'up' (without using DC-DC converter which is alot more
money at 10A). Perhaps they are just lower drop out regulators or able
to eek out a bit more current from the alternator but obviously this guy
is pretending to answer some query in order to sell stuff.

I do remember my friend as a short cut wired his stereo into the
ignition on/off line to power the 4x50w. His dash lights dimmed along
with the music. When I wired mine up I used a direct 12V supply to the
battery and an ignition on/off line, and got a noticable quality
improvement.

Strangely though the OP has answered some of the criticisms, but his
arguments make no sense atall, while he seems to be involved in the
automotive snake oil industry such a HHO. I guess English is not his
first language.

I am currently waiting the results of a HHO generator test in 'Car
Mechanics' magazine, the makers are claiming 5+mpg improvements by
mixing in locally generated HHO (electrolising water using the
alternator) in real time. But it all looks a bit too Heath Robinson and
actually dangerous to me, they talked about frozen relays lead to
explosions. I can't see how a 5+ improvement in MPG for free has been
missed to this point, but you do hear alot about how the car industry
like to supress this stuff. It is however more believable than 'free'
power from kenetic energy.

The regulator in an automotive alternator does not regulate the output
voltage directly as a linear series pass regulator such as the
ubiquitous 3 terminal regulators used in many small electronic devices does.

What it does do is control the field excitation current in response to
the output voltage of the alternator. As load increases and the voltage
starts to drop, the excitation current increases which increases the
output to compensate, the other effect being it increases the mechanical
load on the engine. The primary advantage of an alternator over an old
fashioned generator is that the brushes that transfer power to the
rotating assembly need only handle the current to the field coil in the
rotor rather than the entire output as is the case with a generator.

A standard automotive alternator can produce well over 100V if you drive
the excitation balls to the wall directly off the 12V battery with no
regulator. Indeed, it's a common trick used to run line voltage
incandescent lights and power tools driven by universal motors in
emergencies. Obviously one must first disconnect the output from the 12V
electrical system before doing this, and it likely does no favors for
the alternator but it does work.

In a nutshell, these adjustable regulators allow one to set the
reference voltage in the regulator against which the output is compared
to control the field current, which allows you to adjust the output. As
for reasons to do this, in many cars, the electrical system is not
really adequate. Older designs that got more and more accessories added
as they matured have more and more load on the system, and when you add
to that aftermarket devices you load things even further. Voltage drop
in the wiring and connectors that would be insignificant in a 120V or
240V household circuit become very significant when you only have ~12V
to work with, so sometimes boosting the stock alternator voltage up a
hair works nicely to compensate for losses elsewhere. Really it would be
better to rewire the entire car with heavier gauge wire and better
connectors throughout, but in most cases that's not really practical.

Thanks thats a helpful explanation. Still find it hard to understand
how if the problem is really deficient wiring, that bringing the voltage
up will reduce dimming when varying loads are applied, although I guess
it increases the low level. But I do see how that can help with
charging a battery in a caravan.

Really what you want is to isolate the battery/alternator/starter system
and regulate outside of it, preferably using a high efficiency switch
mode regulator. Then you might have some sort of useful KERS system
with bigger voltages / faster chargng. Although everything inside the
battery system would need redesigned for the higher voltages (Starter
solenoid, alternator, more batteries).
