    If battery lang, 12.6 but should not go beyond 13, If alternator is running, assuming its good, it should stay to almost 14V even if you have AC, lights on.

    On my car, 14 Volts, AC, Lights, engine ON. If you google, normal alternator volts is 14V, so that should be the reading when idling.

    Open battery terminal



    Generator & load ON

    14.3 (some say 14.4) volts ang maximum voltage...beyond that unti unting mauubos ang dugo ng battery.

    yung sa akin ganito:

    IGN * ON: 12.3 - 12.4V (glow plug on na iyan)
    IGN * start: zero (dahil hihigupin lahat ng starter ang kuryente ng battery)
    idling speed: 14.3 volts then trickles down to 14.0 habang tumatagal.

    A/C ang pinakamalakas lumamon ng kuryente. at syempre pati na rin ang mga high wattage na mga ilaw (kung meron ka). except mga led. mababa lang amperage ng mga yan.

    yung ginawa ko sa digital voltmeter ko e nakawire ito directly sa battery via a relay para hindi na kasali sa reading yung voltage drop sa wiring within the dash.

    Relay control circuit: wired to IGN ON
    Relay load circuit: wired to battery & voltmeter.

    Ayos, thanks for sharing the idea, lagyan ko din digital volmeter yung sa kin para monitor palagi ilang voltage when using the car.. Salamat Miked
