I have a 6 cal 2700 series Ford Lehman with standard Lucas alternator connected through a diode splitter to the engine and house batteries. It really doesn't seem to put much out and when I pull into port and switch on the shore charger the charge to the house batteries leaps up to about 23 amps for a few hours to bring the house up to full charge. (there is a cooler that is the big user)
I am looking for a bigger suitable alternator with an external regulator more suited to providing a good charge to the house batteries when the engine is running.
