Will go out on a limb here and perhaps provoke some discussion. My thoughts are that the diodes in an alternator may draw 100 MA (milliamps) or more, therefore when storing equipment for an extended period disconnect alternator from battery. For a fully charged battery a one amp continuous charge is too much. 50 to 200 amps is the range that would be sufficient. The numbers used here are based more on my reasoning than on my experience.
