[QUOTE="oexing, post: 149579, member: 1493"] Regulator DC voltage at 11.3 - 13.0 V seems a bit low . I´d like to get 13.8 - 14.* V with some load on it, like battery connected. Get a different regulator which outputs nearer 14 V and see what that does to the ignition. Best and most reliable ignition is contact breaker type with spring ATD - like more than 15 million VW beetles had , plus x millions other cars till into 80ies. For regulator I like the set 3phase rectifier plus converter to 13.8 V . No heat problems at all, just a bit of alu plate for the rectifier when having more than 200 W out of alternator. And you get more power from the Alton as you don´t cut output at 14 V , instead let it produce 40 - 50 V, whatever, and only then convert it to 13.8 V .
