Default Re: Magneto battery charger

If the battery is fully charged, it may not put out much amperage. It still shares load with the battery while charging. The 3-brush generators with John's FP regulator only show a charge when current draw increases such as when the lights are turned on (on electrically lighted vehicles) but it will still taper off as soon as the battery catches up. I don't know about the magneto set up though. That's a whole different ball game.
