Joe, How much are they spinning in a car? To me it looks like the wheel on the alternator is much smaller than the wheel on the car engine, could it be 1 to 4 or more? 4,000 rpm for the car engine is quite usual, so the alternator can not be far from 18,000 in normal conditions. Just a thought about the normal conditions for an alternator, or maybe I am wrong?
