Alright, lets talk about version 2.0. I looked through the PDF Fummins posted earlier in this thread. It said if you cut the sense wire, most alternators default to shutting off. So, lets see how to get to the S (sense) wire.
The 'relay box' is the fuse box in the engine bay. F15 is the location of the fuse that runs to the S wire. So, testing this one out will be as simple as pulling fuse #15 under the hood. Yay, I like easy.
So, I tested it. I pulled the fuse, fired the car up and... 15V! Haha, the opposite of what I wanted. If the alternator can't sense the battery voltage, it just blasts out 15V. Sadly, this doesn't get us any closer to killing the alternator at will. However, it does tell us how to turn the sucker on full blast! This was part of phase 3 of the project, so we will file that information away for later.
So, it looks like we'll have to figure out a version 3.0.
