Not to argue, but car alternators DO produce AC. Actually, three phase AC. Then it's just rectified to DC...

well there you go, can always stand to learn something new if you are willing. just so happens that Brian G is the one opening my eyes a little wider most of the time its funny i just finished replacing the altenator in my wifes civic cause the regulator went bad. never would have guessed it rectified the current to dc, even though its called an altenator

slimthelineman is glad there are forums with people way smartet than me and willing to share those smarts, especially them street smarts
