DC Power Engineering

Was hearing that its not a good idea to put a ho alt in a charger, because the voltage is regulated by the computer What is the word on this? Is it worth putting one in?

How do I run dual alternators in my truck? The engine is a 2.8l V6 out of a 92 S-10. I want both alternators running everything, not one my truck and one my back battery bank/system. Thanks, Dom

I received my alts,and bracket. But I am missing the pig tails and instructions to wire the alts......Also are all the alts set to 18v.

Hey Kyle, Stan, Rob. I have talked to Kyle about 4 weeks ago, emailed him 3 weeks ago, and left another voicemail with him today, left Stan a voicemail about a week ago and talked to Rob on the phone about a week ago. I have still yet to get anything figured out or my daily driver running. I haven't heard back from Kyle or stan in over 4 weeks and I was told my Rob that the situation would be taken care of by this week but i am still here waiting. Get back to me ASAP.

is the one building my alternator

can someone give me a quote on a alternator for an 04 impala to power a 3500 watt amplifier

I need some help here, I picked up a DC Power 250 (I'm guessing a sp model). I was told it was for a 2005 Ford Explorer V6. I want to install it on my 1996 Ford Bronco. My problem is that my factory alternator (95 amp 3G) has a 3 prongs on the regulator with another single prong plug right next to it. This new alternator has 4 prongs on the regulator and the pigtail I have with it goes from 4 into 2 prongs. Sorry if that's hard to understand, here are some pics of what I'm talking about: the 2 prong plug coming off the DC alt this end plugs into the DC alt DC alt in factory alt in factory plugs What do I need to get this thing to work?

Hey guys, Got the alternator today, this thing came shipped in excellent packaging! looks great Just have one problem that I noticed when trying to install...Looks like the stock wiring harness is different than the one that came with the DC alt? The stock is a 4pin while the new one is only a 2pin? Here are some pictures of what i'm talking about: Stock Harness (female adapter) DC power male adapter Do i need a new adapter? or is there something I need to do with this one? I am kinda short for time, trying to have the install done by this weekend/ monday at the latest... Thanks for the help

Hey guys, So here's pictures of stock harness and new one: stock new The blue wire goes to positive stud on alt, correct? I know where the black positive cable from stock wiring goes to positive stud on alt (from stock pic) But where/does the white wire, and the two red wires go to the old wiring? In the pic you see the red wire with ring terminal on left, but on the right theres another red wire about 3-4" long with no ring terminal, just dangling (is this one used?) Thanks

vehicle: 1997 jeep wrangler 4.0L straight six So alt has been installed and working wonderfully, now I'm adding the resistor to the stock wiring to get rid of the check engine light. Here's the stock wiring "In your picture, "A" is the original B+, C is ground, and B1 & B2 is the field connections for the stock alternator" Now I've put the resistor between the field connections as shown below: and my check engine light still comes on, Is this because the stock +12v/B+ and ground aren't connected? Did I install the resistor incorrectly? I also checked the resistor with a dmm and it's not faulty. Any ideas? Thank you - Stefan

First off do you offer a 270 for a 2007 Toyota matrix? Also I saw a post where you stated it would do rated idle power (170-180 if I recall) for fifteen minutes with no problem. Are there any consequences doing this rated output for more than fifteen minutes? What us your rated turn on and max rotating speed? Also do these alternators have any built in surge protection or do you offer any that is external? For example our 90amp power supplies used for shows have a 1,000 amp surge protection. Thanks, Quentin

I got an 04 GMC Sierra and wanting to put my system from my car into it. I have 1 XS battery and 3 Dekas. I am considering 1-2 more batteries (prob 1 xs). My question is I've been researching HO alts for it and I think the biggest ones in stock for my truck is the sp320 and the xp390. I'll be running close to 7K watts on 2 18s. I know I'll be drawing over 320 amps of current. Is the 320 plenty? or should is the 390 more in the ball park?

So i talked to Kyle and he said I would be plenty satisfied with a 250amp alt for my jeep. Im putting in 2 18s NS v2 and a single 4500. And eventually upgrading doors speakers. My question is will i just replace my oem alt with this one or will i need a dual bracket?

So i finally put in my order for dual 270 xp's and the bracket. The two T4000's and the T1000.4 are dieing for the power. Luckily I'll be in town to pick it up , so I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

Got a 320amp for my scion xb....can't wait for it to get here!!

I don't think you have gotten the last two PM's I have sent you. Can you tell me the last one you have? Thanks!

Kyle its the local guy with the lexus. I know you said you guys might be ready to have me bring my car in at the end of the month. Is it a possibility that I might be able to get my car in anytime soon?

whats up dc powering? i have ordered and paid for the 250 amp xp alt and universal 1/0 oxygen free copper charge cable kit. alt sku # ( 13639-250-XP) for a 2002 nissan maxima 3.5. my name is maurice mitchell and i made my oder with stan. as i look on this fourm i see that sometimes there is a issue with getting your porduct out on time. this week will be two weeks from the week i ordered it so just want to make sure it will be sent out this week. my current alt is on its way out and i dont want to pay for another alt to hold me off untill i get yours. ive heard good things about your alt thats why i choosen you guys for my high output alt. i am very excited about getting …

We've only been waiting for it since January, and this is just our "loaner" machine until the one we ordered is done.. This one is 15hp, has a 350 amp load bank, and will do dyno sheets with everything we ship after we get it all set up.. The machine we are having built has a 20hp motor and a 580 amp load bank for some of the bigger alternators we build, but this one will do for now.. Not that there's anything wrong with a $50k "loaner"..

I have been dealing with DC Power since last year having conversations with Robbie and Kyle. To make a long story short I choose to no longer do business with DC Power. I was very upset and frustrated with having to choose this route and so was Robbie (owner of DC Power). Robbie contacted me last week and offered his product to me. Robbie expressed his concern with having a customer that was not happy with his company. Robbie truly wants his customers to be pleased with his company's product. I am absolutley floored that Robbie cares this much about 1 customer when his company has thousands!!!!!!! Thank you Robbie, Kyle and the rest of the group at DC Power. Here are p…

Our New Lathe... More pics and vid coming soon.

I just wanted to say thanks to dc power for their great product. The new alt made a huge difference. check out the vid to see for yourself. I will have better vids up when i'm feeling better, been real sick lately.

I have a 2001 impala and need a alternator. I wanted one that was atleast over 230 amps so what do you guys have? Also right now im just running one btl but later down the road i will be running 2 or 3 btl and so if i get a big alternator now it wont mess anything up right? Also how much would it cost?
