So, say something new about alternators.

Just to give you something to feed on?

I don't think so.

I'll say something new...

Perhaps Larkin would be happy to address Ian's question, "What I was
wondering was whether its possible to get more energy into the battery
by letting the generator output voltage stretch its legs so to speak
and convert the excessive voltage down with a buck converter"?

How about it, JL? Address the original question with your wisdom.
Dazzle us with your brilliance. We're waiting.

We're still waiting, though it's no surprise... push the question back
to technical details only, and Larkin enters "silent mode" :-)

Indeed.

I can't recall a single instance where he boasts about his circuits
and shows his work, although he's certainly critical about me showing
mine.

Something about that posting the math and working through the problem
is something I shouldn't be doing in order to prove that what I'm
talking about is right, mathematically, while out of the other side of
his mouth he extols the virtues of the inexactness of qualitative
exposition where _his_ "work" is concerned.

He'll not be heard of again in regard to this topic... except perhaps
he may toss a few snarky "old hens" or "cluck-clucks" our way.

---
That sure seems to be his wont - name-calling - when he's faced with
having to reply to anything where he has to admit to error or which
makes him feel uncomfortable because he can see it leading to where he
dare not go.
---

But he'll have no technical answer, for he has no clue.

Be fair.

I've given JL ample opportunity to answer the TECHNICAL question... he
won't/can't.

You've killfiled me, you incredible moron. Of course you can't see
what I post.

Incredible moron!
