[QUOTE="Mark Fisher, post: 32764, member: 510"] David, I think maybe than Glen was asking 1660 bob what kid of alton he has not me. For the record both my shadow and my Egli have the newest type of direct drive single phase altons. I did update the Egli about a year ago from one of the early (2001) direct drive single phase units simply because i'm running 4 plugs, plus coils, plus boyer ignition and a grosset starter which was a bit too much in traffic at night for the unit. I did have a 3 phase on my thruxton but it was useless. When i upgraded the egli it came with a regulator that looks a bit like the podronics but with an extra wire, plus instructions on how to use this wire. However it consistently overcharged the battery and drained it when not in use. I fitted a podronics unit....end of problems. My shadow always did have a podronics unit so no problems with charging etc, I've had issues with the drive gear but thats another story. I'm pretty sure that John at coventry spares will only supply an alton with a podronics unit (unless of course you already have one) and he knows what he is doing. Hope this is helpful. mark [/QUOTE]
