Couldn't think of any other place to post this, Seems like 9 out of 10 trucks that come in to get worked on have weak or dead batteries and Since you can't buy a real battery charger anymore, I have this idea of using an electric 110V motor to turn a 200 Amp alternator attached to a battery.
Generally charging a dead battery with another truck for a few minutes will allow it to start right up vs a battery charger that keeps kicking off from overheating and taking a while to charge the batteries.
So question is what hp motor to use and RPM to turn alternator.
Thoughts good or bad??
