A friend of mine is telling me to return my battery for my car because it is too much in power...if i were to hook it up, it will F*** my alternator because of its high output...can a battery with high output really mess up the alternator in my car or any car for that matter? My ouput of my battery capacity is:

CCA (BCI 0°F): 900 amps
MCA (BCI 32°F): 1125 amps

im using the Optima D31A battery btw. And what is the max output for a battery we can get for our vehicle?

-Thanks for your time

False. A battery's cranking amperage output will not make your alternator fail.

slap your friend

thankyou....out of all things, i thought it would make it better...especially if you have a sub that keeps drawing all the energy out of the car's system...thanks
