This could be considered a follow on from the previous question regarding battery bank size. A good rule of thumb is to choose a battery bank size to alternator size using a ratio of 4:1, e.g. for a battery bank size of 240Ahrs an alternator of 60Amps should be used (minimum). Using a larger alternator will not damage the batteries by over charging on the contrary it means the alternator does not have to work so hard.

Powermaster early style Delco alternators will work either way - as a one wire or OEM style. The main difference between a one wire and an OEM is the method used to energize or turn on the alternator. An alternator using the OEM style is turned on with the ignition switch. The one wire design is energized with a special sensing cicuit built into the internal voltage regulator. This circuit senses the rotation of the alternator's rotor. See similar questions...

For coastal cruising, the simple answer is whatever boat strikes your fancy and satisfies your budget. People who strain their budget to buy expensive boats don't tend to use them that much, because they're busy earning money to keep both their boat and other aspects of their lifestyle afloat. I had a graphic example of this when I visited the ritzy Marina del Rey section of our city (where I work) and the far scummier Long Beach marina. See similar questions...

PIAA 1000's. The combined draw of 170 watts, will most likely exceed the excess output of the F's alternator (275 watt - 170 = 105 watts). Several people myself included run a pair of 55 watt (55 + 55 = 110 watts) PIAA's I can run my lights alone without a problem but I do not try to run the lights and heated grips at the same time too much draw. You could switch the bulbs in the 1000 to one of the PIAA bulbs which draws 55 watts but puts out 85 watts worth of light. See similar questions...

Choosing the size of the vane you are going to use is like picking what fletching you are going to use, it is totally preference. Now, what you need to consider is that target shooters like to use the smallest size they can that still allow them to achieve stable arrow flight. By using the smallest size, this allows the wind to have a minimal effect on the flight and allow target shooters to shoot longer distances with more accuracy. See similar questions...

A bougie is a soft flexible rubber tube that comes in multiple sizes. They are designed to stretch esophageal strictures. We use them to calibrate the size of the gastric sleeve. The size indicates the circumference in millimeters. I use a Size 32 bougie, which translates to a diameter of about 10 millimeters or 0.4 inches. This is very thin, and explains why you can't eat very much! See similar questions...

SPECjAppServer2004 should not be used to size a J2EE 1.3 application server configuration, because it is based on a specific workload. There are numerous assumptions made about the workload, which might or might not apply to other user applications. SPECjAppServer2004 is a tool that provides a level playing field for comparing J2EE 1.3-compatible application server products. See similar questions...

Let the surface you are painting be your guide. The larger the surface, the larger the tool you will need. For exterior siding, use a 4" brush. Use a 3" brush for exterior gutters. For painting interior trim, use a 1" to 2 1/2" brush. The most important guide, however, is to select a brush that is comfortable to use. See similar questions...

The closer you can approximate the look of a typewritten letter, the more closely people read the letter. Even in the era of desktop publishing, this has been proven again and again. Never "justify" (line up evenly) the right-hand margin, which takes away enormously from its impact as a letter. for size, be kind to over-fifty folks who can't manage smaller print any more. Usually 11- or 12-point type work best. See similar questions...

Some Powermaster one wire alternators (i.e., pn/n's 17127, 17294, 37294, 47294, 8002, 58005) can be hooked up as a three wire ...IF the vehicle is equipped with the two spade GM or aftermarket wiring harness. The Powermaster one-wire alternators have a black plug cover on the side of the alternator. This can be removed and the GM or aftermarket two-spade wiring harness can be plugged in for three-wire operation. See your alternator instruction sheet for further details. See similar questions...

Yes, but probably not for very long. If the alternator warning light is on, it means your charging system is not producing enough current to meet the electrical needs of your vehicle and to keep the battery charged. That, in turn, means your vehicle is running on borrowed time off the battery alone. You can keep on driving as long as the battery has enough juice left in it to keep the ignition system, fuel injectors, fuel pump and other electrical accessories working. See similar questions...

In it’s relaxed state, the Cuddle Ewe Underquilt will measure smaller than the fabric dimensions. When measuring the Cuddle Ewe Underquilt, the fabric should be pulled tight and measured from seam-to-seam.

There will be about 2” of mattress showing all the way around the Cuddle Ewe. See similar questions...

I would not go any smaller than a 25gauge needle. This is probably the best size for fina. Now you can use bigger, but remember that you'll be injecting everyday or every other day. As for the length, an overall good length would be an 1" .....so a 25g 1" 3cc case needle would be the best. Now if you have a fat ass than you'll also need 1 1/2" pins also. these can be bought separately. See similar questions...
