It charges 100Amps with the orginal calcium battery (12.5V before i started it).
I replaced it with a lead battery (12.6V before i started it) and it charges 40Amps now. still a bit high i think, with no use of radio lights etc...

So i think the battery is dead. But does a diffrent battery lower that 40Amps?

The voltage is 14.3 on battery and 14 when plugging a OBD reader.
