So Jeff, if your alternator cannot provide the current to drive the
headlamps where does the current come from.
The battery?
So if the battery provides the current to drive the headlamps where does
the battery get the current from to recharge itself?
The alternator?
Well you've just said the alternator can't provide the current. This means
that irrespective of the petrol reserves, a car with its headlamps on has a
limited range. That range must be the distance it can cover before the
headlamps discharge the battery. But we all know that a car with a battery,
alternator and a running engine will be able to drive as long as it has
petrol.
So where does the missing current come from to replenish the charge in the
battery as the battery is "topping up" for the alternator, which will not
drive the headlamps?
Does the car "dowse" for it?
Do the headlamp pixies provide it?
I think we should be told as this energy we can get from nowhere may be the
solution to the world's energy shortages.
