One wire alternator setups DO drain the battery when not running. For tractors that don't get run much this causes a problem. I just aquired an H with a one wire alternator that did just that. Plus, the alternator was connected directly to the battery so wouldn't see the drain through the ammeter.

I have not seen anything close to that even on start up. I have to rewire my 300U and Super C now.
