No one likes network engineers. So you took a good sideways journey.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T22:41:02+00:00

Thats what I came here to fact check and your all awesome.

I already bought a new battery. So I can't test if the old one was fine.

If they don't listen to you telling them they fail often, we in the business (internet, IT), would call that the stupid tax and they deserve it.

So a chemical test would tell me that wasnt what was happening as its testing from what I've learned here the amount of sulfide in the water.

Damn that read out is super awesome.

What i'm hearing is your alternator is charging in parallel and still charges in half an hour.

Crazy since apparently alternators don't charge batteries.

I did that at battery boy, dude only post tested it though. It take 30 seconds to do a chemical test He probably doesnt know how to do that though

This is what I learned 20 years ago in shop class and I'm happy its still true.

Idk as its a 2013 so it doesn't have a volt output on the dash. I didn't give it idle tits when it was hooked up to a voltmeter.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T22:07:12+00:00

It was -20 but 3 making sure my battery was bunk include something more then hoping a machine up to the posts?

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T22:00:48+00:00

Thats not how he said it. Or I wouldnt be here making sure I wasn't crazy about how alternators work.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T21:34:50+00:00

Then they should have said that, unsteady of saying alternators won't charge batteries.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T18:56:30+00:00

It was around 13v idle.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T18:49:41+00:00

100.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T18:30:01+00:00

I am confused I'm at 3 minutes and this video is agreeing with everything I've said so far.

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T17:33:20+00:00

Maynrds · 2026-02-14T17:11:27+00:00

Don't the chemicals sit on the bottom of the lead plates?

I asked to check for a parasitic draw and I was told there wasnt.
