I have had no luck getting my charging system figured out so it looks like I'll either be leaving the car at home or driving on battery power. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) Anybody have a rough guess as to how far a fully charged battery will take you? No lights, stereo or accesories running.

In a teener, with a fully charged battery, from Tucson, AZ to 20 miles outside Blythe, CA with a stop in Scottsdale for attempted repairs. A battery pack will then carry you from Blythe to Beaumont, CA. Daylight running.
With a fully charged new battery, you can go from Beaumont, CA to Riverside at night by running w/o headlights in traffic when you are able. It will be dead when you arrive at Riverside. About 250 miles, day time, no lights. The engine will quit when the volt guage indicated about 9.5 volts. |
