Sitting here at Buffalo wild wings watching UFC, from memory I would say conservatively 15 ft of black and 8 ft of red will work
You are doing the lord's work sir. Thanks again.
 
Hello all!

I know this is an old thread but I was looking at the bnr option and I was curious if you guys are still happy with it or if you would have gone a different route if you could do it over?

No, mine lasted about11 months and quit on me while I was in Key West with no way to utilize the warranty, so I had to buy a new one and exchange the BNR core just to get a little of my money back.

Give me until tomorrow, I wound up getting a different one about 2 years ago and it's still running fine.

Is the new replacement a 220amp one with 3 or 4 pin connector?

Sorry, I forgot to reply to this, this place was recommended to me by a couple Toyota engineers I met at Overland Expo. I have had this one for 2 years with no issues.

 
If anyone gets one of these upgraded alternator I would be curious what the internals look like. An earlier post has statements from BMR saying better bearings, diodes and reinforced rotor. A pic of the rectifier at minimum would be nice. I've pulled apart/rebuilt OEM, denso and chinese alternators and am curious if there is a visible difference for the claimed upgrades.

My understanding is that some of these upgraded alternators are really just running smaller pulleys to overdrive the output. I'm not saying that's what BMR does, but am curious what the upgrades look like.
