Phil, thanks for your response.
as someone who is very well versed in battery & charging technologies, I under stand what your saying.

my purpose posting here on the BB was to find out what the charging experience is with other 850 owners.
if other owners claim that their alt./reg. is able to maintain above 13 volts charging under load, but mine does not, then it appears that I have a problem somewhere in my charging system that bears further troubleshooting.

battery & belt are relativity new, so I'll have to revisit electrical connection which for now appear to be good.

when better weather arrives, I'll have a better look at some chassis grounds.

Peter
