Yes I’d love to see a reassembly video, please. And thank you much.

Absolutely a great vid.. perfect for the diy'er needing more current. Thank you for sharing

This video series is awesome. Thanks so much for sharing makes me want to pick up a couple cheap alts and hop em up. 👍

Bought a 100k mile, '06 IS250 for $9k cash, and over the past year I've spent another $3k or so on a good SQ system with all the bells and whistles. Considering the prices of 240 or 320 amp high output alternators, this video series is EXTREMELY captivating...I might just try to save myself a few hundred🤷‍♂️

buddy you're a life saver. my car the only HO alternator i can find for it is $800 and living with my budget i cant afford to spend that much plus additional speakers and another amplifier (currently have 3 10"s on a 3k thats turned down cause anymore than half power and my car stops accelerating at 2k rpms< dang 150amp alternator and electric everything lol)

You could also use insulating varnish to eliminate the bulkiness of any other type of insulation. It does require a little curing time, but well worth eliminating the other insulation. It's also generally more heat resistant.

Thx u for the video just wish u can make another one with a closer view plz

Wow , awesome video. This is exactly what I need to do. I was about to buy a high output alternator because I have installed high wattage amplifiers fir audio equipment in my 2013 Toyota Corolla . I have a ?? For you, will I be able to do this to my alternator? Can you make the diagram a little more clear and also can you provide the description of the wire , soldering and all the necessary things to do the job? Thank You I love how you did this .

Yes... bro...the channel name is....THEY DONT WANT MUSIC.... so i m subscribing this channel..... Its not that we dont want music..... but when yu want to learn...electronic or motor.... that music is disturbing...... So i like this... tey dont want music channel.... 👌👌👌😁😁🤣🤣🤣... i m lovin it...😘😘😘😘😘

Very nice. The windings account for the magnetic force and the amps with the thickness of the wire . I’d like to see an amp clamp test to see for fun it’s interesting. What’s next

Just awesome work man. God blesses you.

I am up to about the four and a half minute mark and still haven't figured out exactly what you're doing. My semi educated guess is that you're reconnecting the stator from a Wye format to Delta. There are several problems with this "320 amp upgrade", one of which is the inability of a small case alternator to dissipate the amount of heat that it will create at that level of output. The second is that your typical passenger car/truck alternator is absolutely NOT rated for 100% duty cycle at maximum output to start with. Whatever the rating, it is with the alternator COLD. Once it begins to heat up, output goes down. Outside of going to Delta wound hairpin and/or a six phase square wire stator, I very seriously doubt that alternator is going to produce 320 amps. Even if it comes somewhat close to that output level, it won't be capable of sustaining it for more than a few minutes at most. I actually own a Leece Neville alternator originally used on a large commercial truck or bus that is rated at 320 amps....and that is a continuous rating. The alternator weighs close to 35 pounds and is 2 - 2.5x the physical size of what you're working on in the video. It also has 12 diodes(twice as many as the typical passenger vehicle alternator), with half of them mounted on the outside of the alternator.

Looks like a great projet, but for newbie's like me...... need a closer look at what you're doing. Your camera is too far

So you were saying it will put out lower voltage at low rmps how high do the rmps have to be to put out the correct voltage and the full 300 amps?

Yup that was my truck on fire under the hood at the Bass competition!!

❤️love Brother 💎 what a good video.. striping down my own mercedes alternator and Gona make it 💎 thank you so much ❤️

Years ago i reman'd my own alternator and the solder where i soldered the rectifier to the windings melted off about 3 days after being reinstalled and in use.....what type of solder should i have used? Gm cs130 alt

Great video! Will definitely be trying this on my tida 140amp alternator. If I was to send your the picture of the coil can you advise exactly where to cut and join on my particular alternator? Really need to do this model as my current car audio set up is in need of a high output alternator

I would like to know how you figured this out ??? Also, how does the amp curve go from engine idle to redline ??? Does the idle RPM amperage cut in half since you went from star to delta configuration ???/ Thanks a bunch Sir too.

Can you do a closer up video? Thanks

Absolutely love the tracker music 👍

From the comments, I think you should explain that alternators are actually AC output, converted to DC by the diode pack. Now star/delta conversion may make some sense to a few. Most will correlate that switching to starting ac motors. Not a far stretch once you realize what is happening. My biggest question arises of how to cool the double output when it barely cools at the original output?

0:55 out of this world background music!!!!! 15:37 Gods intro music too!!!!

Pls diagram alternator

This mod will greatly reduce the low rpm output by less than half the stock unit.

Thanks for sharing

I need to do this on my 90/95a alt. From a acura RSX-S (honda integra).. trying to do an electric ac compressor from a prius in example install on this project of mine .. doing a honda accord k24a swap on an older model integra haha I suck at electrical work on cars

I am not 100% sure of this, but I do believe you get the multiple of sqrt(3) (1.73) in gained amperage, not the double. Are you not worried that the voltage regulator will pump the field windings so high that your alternator will stop working from heat build up?

Hi. Great video. What about voltage regulator? Do you leave it oem? Can it handle the new field current to push 300A?

Trying to wrap my head around this... I've never modified or even taken apart an alternator before, but I know that if you remove the rectifier you will have a 3ph AC output, so until I say otherwise, I'm talking about the 3ph AC machine. From watching your video it looks like the output comes from 2 series windings per phase, and you took one phase out of series and put it in parallel to double the current capacity, which would also cut the voltage output in half. If we looked at the AC output (phase-to-phase) on an oscilloscope I predict we would see two AC waves of about 19.5VAC and a 3rd wave of about 9.8VAC. Are you with me up to this point? You agree or?? Ok, now we add the rectifier back to the mix. It turns the 3ph AC into pulsating DC. The ripple factor of full wave rectified 3ph AC is usually low enough to be ignored, especially when it's in parallel with large capacitors or a battery. But that assumes 3 symmetrical phases which is almost always the case, except not here. I think if you looked at the DC output of this alternator on an oscilloscope (with it the alternator output disconnected from the battery) you would see an output that is ~13.8VDC 2/3 of the time, and ~6.9VDC for the other 1/3. BUT The regulator *does* do as you've said in other comments and as its name implies, it *regulates* the current through the slip rings to get an output of about 13.8VDC. But it doesn't (can't) force that modified winding up to the same voltage as the other two. It would need 3 separate regulators and 3 separate slip rings to do that. So does the regulator work based on the average of the DC output? If so, then your alternator would likel output higher than normal DC under light load. Or does it work on peak DC output? If so then your modified phase really is not getting used. Actually, regardless of peak or average, I think it's not getting used because it's half the voltage of what the other two windings are putting out, so all loads will be powered by those two higher voltage windings and if anything the modified "high output" winding is acting as a load rather than a supply. I think the only way that modified winding gets to supply any current is if the two other windings are put under such tremendous demand that their voltage drops(*) to the same voltage as the modified one. *Then* it can lend a hand, but I think not until then. (*) I'm sure someone will point out that their voltage doesn't drop, because the regulator will add more current to keep them outputting the proper voltage. I agree with that. It's a relative relationship. The voltage of the two normal windings won't drop; the voltage of the modified one will rise up to match them. But I could think of a simple way to put that in a sentence without derailing the point I was making. So... please, tell me where I'm going wrong.

Very nice and interesting video,thanks

As a qualified electronics engineer for more than 65 years I am afraid that I cannot make any sense out of both what you say or what you are doing. The mind boggles.

At 16:23 I did not get the type of diode referred as parts of "decent after market parts" ? Thanks for the video.

I belive i have a 220 and i need a 320 do i only cut 1 side ? 2014 dodge ram 2500 6.7 turbo diesel

What do you think about an external rectifier, the black epoxied bricks with Philip screws on top and flat heat sink bottoms?

Cool, should link pictures, I'd like to try

Good evening sir I've been watching some of your videos I would like to have link radio to assembly on the alternator also rebuilding a Ford alternator F-150 if there is one you have one and any other informational videos going along with the changing of alternators into from DC to AC output thank you so much have a blessed day

Will it not affect anything with the new wire being 30% smaller or so than what is already on there?

Amazing job bro. Thank you for taking your time to make the video. But I do have a question for you. Can you do this to any alternator. And will it work. Or is there a different in other alternators. I wanted to modified my 2012 Honda accord alternator. Thank you for your time

What happens if you do damage the enamel then what do you do?

So is there any reason why you couldn’t do this to a regular 60 amp car alternator???

Well down good job man

thanks for amazing videos can I have your idea that what is the best solution to use all petrol engine HP for an electrical generator? attaches multi alternator through belt would work? OR design new specific alternator regards to engine torque and rpm

Hi. Great video. I would like to do this with a motorcycle stator. They look very different so I don’t know if the same rules o process applies.

Try Kapton tape for insulating the soldered joins.

great job!!!!!!!!!

nice clean job

New students coming into class

This video was awesome. Thanks! Is it possible to do something similar to a motorcycle stator?

I would like a video on the assembly of an alternator please

How much would you charge to upgrade my alternator ? 2007 single cab chevrolet colorado 2.9l

The comment about 3/8 killed me 😂 I hate that we use imperial here

where can I buy hairpin stators?

I have a Yukon with the 130 amp alternator, rpo kg8..... Can I modify my alternator the same way and double it's amp output or do I need to look for a bigger one like you use in this video? And if a bigger one is necessary, which one should I choose to modify? They have them in 10 amp increments all the way up to 200 for my year Yukon and I'm fairly certain miles ok I just need to put my Yukon "back together" again lol as it has split in half right at the "overhang of the undercarriage" lol

Great video thank you . I subscribed just because of this video

This seems like a surefire way to have your alternator overheat surely? And if it doesn't overheat then your battery will drain very quickly at low RPMs and idle?

What's the downside of using alternators modified this way? In the first video you said that it takes higher RPM. So I suppose using smaller pulley would help? How much should the ratio change?

Great video and thanks for sharing. Question: What is the approximate voltage output at idle after modification?

It would be better if you had drawn in paper with more elaboration on how to make the cuttings on the windings before doing it on the video. Cutting the winding is the most critical part of this project.

Heya?, I do believe he is trying to say "here".

Many thanks for your video. I have a hair pin alternator that I want to change but I see it does not look the same as the stator you worked on. Is there anyway I can send you a picture of how it looks? Yours has horizontal wire on 50% of the stator, this one has horizontal wires all the way around the top side.

How about the original rectifier rated from factory? I suppose it needs a change as well?

Great video. Is there anyway to test the alternator before installation to make sure the amperage it higher and works as intended? I'd hate to go through the entire process and then install on my vehicle and it doesn't work

Hi and thank you for sharing. At the beginning on part one, you had said (if I remember correctly) that the diodes and the voltage regulator were going to be replaced as they were not up to par for the application in which you were using.. curious if you changed the voltage regulator and if so how to acquire? Considering i use the same stock alternator and make same modifications to convert to 320amps? Thanks again!

What if I just wanted improved rating of 20A or something, lets say from 110A to 130A, or from 90 to 120A

Good job my friend. It is not necessary to clean the enamel, if you solder enamel cooper wires directly on an aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) pill. Try this (the aspirin dissolves enamel instantly).

Good video but really hard to see exactly the cut wires where they attach to ..like the first cut one goes to the wire that's in red but the otherwise goes where? What is confusing is that don't know from diagram wich is the wire that you didn't cut but added a wire to can't distinguish wich color it is or if it's the red line blue or red ..could you explain it for me I sort of understand but just have a hard time following where do the wires go from the first cut and second cut and the spliced wire ...could you explain it to me again ...Thanks

Someone get this man a set of wire cutters.

I have a 2006 Scion XB that has the 80amp alternator on it and I can’t find anywhere that sales either a 240 or 320 amp alternator for that vehicle. Is it possible to rewire the alternator to get more amps out of it ?

Its really difficult to see where you cut the windings and make the connections.

so what you mean just changing the star to delta will double the current ouput?

Excuse me for asking: if you change it from Y to delta the output voltage will be a half , right? so what is the point to change it???you will have 7.2 Volts after rectifier ...so it will not charge the battery any more.

Hey have a 2012 gti, using the same parts to put it back together is good? Does this change the life of the alternator?

I would like to do this on a gm alternator but it is going on a 6.5 turbo diesel to compensate for aftermarket fans and lights. I have an overdrive pulley on the alternator as it is to compensate for draw at low RPM. Is there a formula to solve for what the output for my setup would be at a given RPM? I could definitely use 300 amps, but will I be able to make a usable amount of that within my engines usable RPM range?

Very nice jop but what is the orignal wiring I think it is two delta winding specially in dodge alternator

Very good video, very clear instructions here. I would like to see results from load testing befpre and after modification. Where can one score that upgraded rectifier bridge?

What would happen if I tried doing this with a 90 amp alternator?

I have a 200 amp alternator and I’m trying to make it 350 Is this possible

Great video. I always wanted to know how it was done. Now quick question I have a 2010 Mazda 6. Will I be able to do the same keeping the same rectifier? Thank you so much.

It would be great to see a reasonably video

Hi would you be able to use your standard battery after this alteration?

what size is that sleeving ?

Are you sure current will be 2 times higher ? Not 1.41 times higher ? Can you make measure ?

high out put or high amps...?

Thanks 😊 🙏

Would it be the same basic process for a ford 6g stator?

How do I make a hairpin stator? Do you have a video?

great video I want know the hi amp not damage normal battery 🔋???

What is the model of the alternator

Hey can u do a 2001 honda accord 2.3l sedan alternator I try'd and fail there telling me I need to replace the stator and get more winding in order to even come close to that amperage.....plz plz thxs

巻線の直径はいくつなんですか。320Aも流して大丈夫？

so is this possible for a denso dodge/jeep alternator ? it has 4 of those leads

Every worked on nissan hr15 alt

Hi What wire exactly did you use?

Can you do a video on Honda alternator's? They are very popular cars and come with a wimpy 70 amp alternator which is on the ragged edge stock of not charging

how to get just 12 volts dc 60 amps I don't need very high current out of it ???? thank you bro for sharing >>>

Hey by chance can you send me a link or something on the wire diagram videos awesome but can't hardly see

good day i didnt get the pictures of the connections to be made and could you do a video on the "Nissan Tida" Alternator i think in ur country its the Versa it has a 240amp alternator i would like to upgrade mine thanks bro. loved the vid very informative

Sorry this is so late being your video is 2.5 years old. But does it hurt anything to just use one portion of the stator instead of all three? I have a 5 rib pulley and it'll slip with to much load. I have a 190A alternator and just need about 250A.
