John...........welcome to a Triumph wire harness that handles all your
electrical loads. I've got pretty much what you have in my TR6 and it puts
out a steady 14.x volts. Go for a drive with your high beams on, radio on,
heater on and honking your horn and see how much it drops, if any. Try the
same thing at idle and see what happens.
Have fun.

Subject: [TR] volt meter
Last year I installed a Dan Masters electrical system and an alternator.
Following Dan's advice I recently installed a voltmeter instead of the old
30 Amp ammeter. My simple minded question is why does my 12 Volt
system/battery read 15 volts on my new volt meter??
