Here a link to another forum with what I'm up to.https://www.utvboard.com/topic/2555-alternator-dead/page__view__findpost__p__13512
The alternator does NOT seem to have a replacement in the States and I thought it might be fun to build a controller for output voltages. It might even be possible to put a switch in to have the alternator put out 110v dc so you could use it to do something like brew coffee or something else, as long as you don't need more than 7.5 amps, the alternator is rated at 14 v and 75 amps.
I have only worked on this mentally, but I think a PWM method is one way to go or there is the constant dc input method. Anyone have any suggestions of how or where to look for ideas?
Thanks,
