Just installed a Hunterworks 500W stator and the instructions say it will increase voltage up to 15V. Mine is operating at 18. Anyone think that will be a problem? Tried calling Hunterworks, but they are closed.
Not sure I follow your theory on how to connect the guage. The guage is going to read your battery no matter where you put it. Rev it up and your gauge will go up as the stator bumps the current. At idle these do not do any significant charging. Just off idle the voltage goes up to 14.7. The faster it revs the more the stator puts out. That is only to the regulator. The regulator rectifies it and regulates it to the battery.
The only issues I have heard of was when they first came out they had some bad rectifier/regulators. That was 2 years ago from my understanding.

it will read higher if its befor the bat. most autos run a gauge at alt. and read 13 to 15 volts if volts are cheeked at the starter or at the main relay box it will only read 12.5 to 13.5 volts! the amps are much diferant
A bad regulator ground would do that. The higher voltage thing.
