Hi guys,
On a small engine ( regardless of brand , horsepower or cylinders or age ) , does the charging rings with a diode in the harness put out more or less voltage than one with an external regulator box . I'm talking about the ones with two wires for outputs from charging ring that are the same color that go to an external regulator box. I say the ring that goes to the external box puts out more voltage. I know the position of the throttle makes a difference , but other than that which one puts out more voltage ? How many volts should safetly be going to a 12 volt battery to safely charge the battery ? I say 15 volts . Long story but thanks to all who reply . Any and all help appreciated .
Thanks,
Whizkid
