What is the amperage of this alternator ?

I do not know the correct amperage but when I received mine it had a test strip and it topped out at 123 amps if that helps!

15A max. Last answer on 08JUL14 is almost correct, missing information. '5' is the layout of the blades, etc. '15' is the maximum amperage.

I do not know for sure, I think 12amps. it is not strong, would not recommend it

The amperage is right under the description. It's 12 amps and according to the formula Watts = V x A then it is 1,440 watts.

No, the other answers are wrong. It does not test not alternator amperage. For that, you would need an ammeter. Use a DC clamp ammeter so you won't have to break the circuit. What the BA7 does check is the alternator voltage. You can also do that with any accurate voltmeter. The proper alternator voltage when the car is running is 13.5v to 14.2v across the battery.

This will greatly depend on the alternator's output of your Econoline van. We recommend that you consult with the owner's manual to find the actual output of the van's alternator. For example, if your alternator's output is 100 amps, then the wattage output is about 1,200 watts (watts = amps x 12 volts). Please note that the electricity produced by the alternator is mostly allocated for the van's usage.

220 volts. I am not sure of the amps, but a 30 amp generator is not enough to weld without tripping breaker.

I agree with too real and it will also depend on your alternator.I went ahead and spent the xtra $ and installed a 200 amp alternator,but there's only one sure way for you to find out!

I bouth this one "DB Electrical ADR0335-C Alternator Chrome General Motors 110 Amp One 1-Wire 65-85" it is literally one wire and as soon as the car starts it starts charging around 14 volts, of course my truck is not finished so no real road time on the alt but it does get started and it runs for a bit and so far so good with keeping it charged

not sure how many amps it pulled but I ran it off a motorcycle battery no trouble

I've driven three strips at once with a pack of 8 AA batteries. What that is in terms of amperage, I don't know offhand, but that should be able to be computed.

Sorry, don't know the amperage. However, I feel if I'm approached I can and will be able to defend myself without a doubt! My next purchase will be a tazer.

In my car I'm running a shunt between the alternator and the negative terminal to read the amps, the power was tapped from a cigarette lighter wire. I believe running the tiny power wires to the shunt would fry them when cranking.

It has a max of 30 amps and car alternators are more then that and the alternator would have its own regulator so to speak so I would not recommend it either. They would conflict.Mike

I don't know the amps needed, I use one of the "booster" 12v units to power it without any problems.

For yur own protection you should get this information direct from Bussman. Advance Auto advertises the unit can handle up to 6 30 amp circuits for a total of 180 amps. I don't think there is are many cars that would require that sort of power. This is not important to me because the alternator on my car is 65 amp.

I just threw a 12 volt car battery in the bed with the wing nut connectors. It should have a 50 amp inline. I have survived so far without it.
