At full field and normal cruise RPM with low load the alternator will
put out about 90 volts DC. This is enough to fry all of your electronic goodies! This is how you convert your 12 volt auto alternator to power your 110 volt electric drill with the flip of a switch.

Hopefully breakers and/or fuses pop before your electronics do.
