Atlan, no, not yet checked for AC voltage, too cold and wet here to be outside.

Mike, I have 2 multi meters and a cigar lighter volt meter and they all show 14.6 volts engine running.

I am going to put the battery on this weekend and do some more tests, one that I want to do is turn the lights on before I start the engine and see if I see a difference in brightness as the alternator kicks in. I see it every day on my ZR and hear it too with the petrol pump that speeds up after a second or so.

Pete.
