âI was quite shocked at the scope of the embezzlement,â he said. The Fall of California Democratic Campaign Treasurer Kinde Durkee Christine Pelisek March 28, 2012. But he was an enabler of the CEO's bad behavior, which I believe is a direct result of the firm's size and scope.
A 120 amp alternator in a typical modern vehicle can safely deliver 70% of that current continuously (84 amps). So say with the fan on medium, lights, ignition, small charging current to a full battery, etc there is a draw of about 45 amps. That leaves say 39 amps (550 Watts) of extra power available.
Fast charging is not usually recommended, as it can damage the battery plates. Car batteries also have a separate type of ampere â the cold crank ampere â that refers to the amount of power the battery can supply to start the engine. Depending on the manufacturer, a car battery can generate anywhere between 400 and 1,500 cold crank amperes.
