I am currently in the middle of a large re-wiring project.
I came across an old Stinger 1 Farad Cap I had kicking around and got an idea.
What would the benefits/consequences be to run this thing in series with the alternator? I understand the initial purpose of the Capacitor with a larger stereo system in order to maintain voltage within the car's electrical system, but I'm not going to run a large stereo.(Or any radio for that matter).
If I ran this in series, if it would actually help the alternator, would I run it after the alternator fuse, or hard wire another fuse?
Guess this might seem like a silly question or pointless idea, but just wondering if it might help the electrical system in general. Thanks for any input from the electrical gurus.
