sheesh people !
the regular is in the alternator, it controls the field voltage and current
the voltage on the external diodes, is the same voltage as the internal diodes
the differences are (2)
#1the alternator runs cooler, because the power and heat for the rv batteries are on the external diodes, the load is shared, parted out to the external diodes
#2 and the 14vac doesn't have the voltage drop of the long run DC
the DC is developed at the external diodes from the 14v 3phase ac
same thing as putting the solar controller close to the batteries, not close to the panels, you make the DC near the batteries, not up at the engine
this is still only 14+ volts NOT high voltage
