IUT?

How many volts is the battery generating? What about the alternator? 5.8V to all of the lights, the horn, and the stereo? What about the coil? Fan blower motor?

LOL. 1652 right now. I'll be up and going until around 0100. One of my freelancing clients is in New Delhi. She's probably still asleep right now.
