The wire is plenty big - either 8 or 10 gauge. And as near as I can tell the
revs weren't much above idling - 2000 max at the time so I pretty much have to
pin the rose on the battery as the source of the current. Especially since
the battery is notably lower afterwards, for example dead this time.
A current surge from the alternator would leave the battery charged higher.
