I looked at the emitters and compared them to the filaments of the incandescent bulbs and found the physical placement and directionality to be rather different.

I'm also running the original 19 amp generator, plus an electric radiator fan. <br>
My battery does wind up a bit down if I drive a long time in LA rush hour traffic after dark (so low rpm with both fan & headlights on), but so far it has always started and recharged in the morning.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I have no information on the Dynalite, but Tony might be a bit biased as he is involved in the sale of those electronic control boxes for the original generator. In other words, he is a competitor.</p>
