I've (and others) have been using the NAPA alternator (in my case RAY213401=
1 remanufactured not repaired.
Remanufactured is where they go through everything, repaired is where they =
just replace the part that went wrong
Can I ask which one you've used?

the 'Rotor' winding via the regulator...

I have been trying to find the source of a parasitic draw of power from my =
battery for the past several weeks. FWIW, I have lost 0.75 volts on the ch=
arge over the last 4 days. This seems like a lot.
When I remove the cable from the negative terminal of the battery (its a ne=
gative ground car) connect one end of my ammeter onto the negative terminal=
on the battery and the other end to the cable removed from the battery, th=
e ammeter (set to read current of less than 10A) does not register a draw. =
However, when I use a 12 volt light and connect it to the same points`, th=
e light goes on ever so slightly.
Today I noticed a very faint humming from the alternator and it was a littl=
e warmer to the touch than the other parts of the engine. When I disconnect=
the alternator from the solenoid, the humming went away and when I tested =
it with the light the light did not light up - no draw. I can=E2=80=99t se=
e anywhere else the draw could be coming from. I=E2=80=99ve pulled all the=
fuses one by one to see if there is power being drawn from each circuit - =
with the alternator hooked up, there is no draw registered.
This is the second new alternator I=E2=80=99ve had on the car in the last 6=
0 days. I had the issue before I exchanged the old alternator and the prob=
lem continued when I installed it. Could it be another bad alternator?? A=
re alternators exceptionally sensitive or just not made very well these day=
s?
Thank you for any light that can be shed on this.
