I thought the same thing. Dead battery.
If your CLP draws the same current as the Accord EX (which I think it does). It'll die
in a matter of a couple months.

Take a look at my trunk:
Now take a look under my hood:
My Pulleys were installed on Nov 14, 2000...
Number of dead batteries: 0
Number of miles on my car since Oct 31, 1999: 34,000
Number of watts my stereo pushes: 590
It's as simple as common sense! Don't crank your stereo if you're stuck in traffic for an hour. Don't crank your stereo if you are washing your car for two hours with the engine off. As long as your engines RPM's are over 1,000 to 1,200 rpms your will be generating the same amount of voltage as if you had the stock pulleys. Several people have done tests with voltmeters (not sure what the exact name is) to measure the affect of the pulleys on the charging system.
Dead batteries are the scare tactic for pulleys like hydro lock is for CAI. Use your head and you won't have a problem.

If you guys are underdriving your crank pulley, are you not concerned with torsional vibration damage to the crank or do they (the aftermarket supplier) provide a dampener?

Hey CLpower...you got the 98-00 Accords right? Where are you getting them installed? For how much...I wanted to get the pulley's too, but just wanted to figure out the details first.

I used to have dang near stomp the peddle just to get a chirp.Bad thing is dyno's don't show low RPM gains.

Why would I try to scare people away from pulleys?
Gee it's damn nice to know you didn't have a problem,
but 2 of us on this board did. My car was stock with
the exception of 55 watt headlight bulbs. I always had
climate control, my headlights and stereo on. I'm not
going to sacrifice comfort like not listening to my stereo
in rush hour for 3 hp.
Simple physics show hydrolock is near impossible.
But, it's freaking obvious you'll create less current with
underdrive pulleys.
I wish you good luck on your mod and hope you don't
have problems. But, to tell two people who are trying to
help, that they are liars and using scare tactics. That's
just uncalled for.

submerge the end of the intake in water. Since the AEM CAI is nearly
a foot off the ground, you'd have to be driving pretty carelessly to sub-
merge it. You'd have water coming into your doors at that depth.
A lot of cases of hydrolock doesn't come from people sucking water in
with their intake. I've had an engine destroyed because of hydrolock.
It was engine coolent that had come through the head gasket.
So like I said, hydrolock is near impossible... unless you drive
through swimming pools quite often. But, believe what you want.

suggestion to pulley people
install pulleys
go to sears or whoever
check for charge current at idle and with different accesories on.
when voltage drops below 12.5v - 13.1v with accesories, etc -- note that speed down.
then just don't drive with radio / stereo / nav / etc under XXX revs
ok -- measure size of original pulley
ok -- measure size on new pully
compute ratio
adjust idle speed accordingly (if you have everything turned on)
stock --> 600 rpm
new pulley .9 underdive, new idle is
600 / .9 = 666.666666 (sign of the antichrist -- car will blow up ... j/k

Actually I plan on using my laptop to monitor the voltage levels with accessories off and then incrementally on (one at a time) and log this at 10 second intervals. Data Acquisition is something I do enjoy.
IMO, the only way to solve the debate is to do testing. One problem I see is the installation issue. If not properly installed or made there can be slippage of the belt or pulley which would lead to problems. Instead of speculating on this issue, we can do testing and present the results for interpretation. More to follow...
