- Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10
  
  By jake111 · Posted 3 hours ago
  
  I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper. The "smart" charging drives me nuts. Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts. Then it drops back down after stopping or going again. Consistently! The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING! Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging. 2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear. Things straighten out and I end up in L10. Sometimes I leave it there for a while. Is there any difference between L10 and D?

  Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter

  I had an alternator fail that was shorted internally in such a direct fashion in addition to the larger gauge cables that it appeared like a VERY dead battery. Granted I think the car did power up, it definitely wouldn't start. Rodent damage to wiring?
