The wolf in sheep's clothing.
New:
- significantly improved in layout and design
- even lighter and more powerful
- also considerably cheaper due to small series production

Your advantages:
- Half the weight, twice the power (3.2 kg instead of 5.6 kg for C40)
- More alternator power with less resistance to rotation
- More engine power where it belongs: on the wheels, not on the alternator.
- The original look is retained
- The old regulator can be retained, adapted in the circuitry, so as not to impair the original look and character of your classic car.

The great technical advantage of the three-phase alternator is its effectiveness. Even at idling speed, the battery receives charging power. This effectiveness continues over the entire speed range, so that the battery is often that decisive bit better charged, especially on less frequently used vehicles.

Conversion kits available for the following Lucas DC alternators: C35, C39/C40, C42, C45 and C48
