Was out 4x4ing recently at night time with a mate.. i had my roof lights on and the front spotties (all up 8 100watters and the 120 watts from regular highbeams) so all up i was running 920 watts or 77 amps.. anyways it was mostly rocky stuff and bumpy gravel at a slow speed, so paj was at most 1000 - 2000 rpm after about 1 hour of this.. everything looked a little dim but didnt think much of it.. then all of a sudden my radar warner goes off .. i knew damn well there wouldnt be a cop or radar out there lol and realised it said low battery (it says that at 9 volts) quickly turned off all driving lights and let it charge for a while and turned on only 4 spotties.. now my question is.
Im sure its bad for the alternator, but how mmuch damage could actually be done??
next day i bought a new battery and now whenever i turn on my lights, eveything dims slightly .. thats not with any spotties ..have i totally F****D the alternator??
