Moyer 120A alternator by API

Hello

I am wondering about the regulation on the 120A alternator from Moyer.

Specifically; what voltage is it set for to charge the batteries? My old 37A motorolla is 14.2V and want to ensure a upgrade is the same. I fear to low a setpoint may shorten the life of my deep cycle lead acid.

As well.... is that setpoint adjustable on the API unit?


Thanks
Chris

The instructions (see attached PDF) state that the regulated output is 14.2

Not that you can't buy easily on-line but I would suggest you call Ken (610-421-4436) to order.
He'll make sure you get the right stuff and can answer just about any question. (A4 related of course)
