14.4-14.8 when float charge.

13.3-13.8 when standby.

12.5-12.8 norminal voltage.

11.8v and below - RIP.

Do not charge your battery over than 14.8v. Or drain your battery below 11.8v. Both will cause your battery RIP.

Thats why i'm running a voltage stabilizer, because my car is running 1980s' style alternator that has no additional electronics.

After crank up your engine, use a multimeter to check your alternator voltage. If it not in the 14.4v - 14.8v range, time to change the alternator.

But sometime below that voltage is cause by too many electronic thing install that running. You have to judge yourself.

I'm lucky i'm driving a freaking dinosaur. The only high tech gadget i have in my car is the voltage stabilizer & coil. So no worries for me. My cap ayam batteries last more than 3 years all the time.
