Jonesy..... ....The "Fun Projects" 2-terminal solid state cut-out relay replacement performs 2-tasks. 1) Disconnects the battery from the generator when the engine stops turning the genny with blocking diode scheme. This is all the roundcan cut-out relay does. 2) Regulates the battery charging with a voltage sensitive "chopper" that connects the 1-wire 3rd-brush 11 amp genny output in short bursts of charge/no-charge depending upon the battery voltage. It doesn't dump the genny output to ground, just electronically disconnects it. It works, and you the operator don't haffta keep adjusting yer 3rd-brush output depending upon wheather yer headlights are on or not. Ya justs adjusts yer 3rd-brush for MAX output and letts the chopper control the battery charge. The 3rd-brush actually adjusts the genny's field current for stronger/weaker magnetic field for more/less EMF. Thats a technical term for Electrical Magnetic Field. Yer typical 3 or 4 terminal squarecan voltage regulates the genny field's magnetic strength by a buzzing/vibrating relay (chopper)..... ..HTH, Dell (EE)
