With the small amount of belt contact on the small pulleys used to spin the alternator fast enough how will it be able to handle the horsepower to make the constant amperage to run the system?
Most alternators cannot make the top amperage output continuously,the output drops off as the alternator heats up.
For those with alternators have you ever tested the maximum output to see if it can supply the rated output?
I think a flywheel alternator could be the answer.
