charger designed for commercial use such as the Rotunda GR-1. Never
let a fully discharged battery remain discharged for a long period of time.
Extended storage in a discharge state can cause irrecoverable damage to
the internal components or cracking of the container. As a battery
approaches a discharged state it becomes easier for the electrolyte to
freeze. If it freezes and expands it may crack the battery case.

Alternator - police

The high-output alternator provides 200 amperes of current to support
the high power requirements of modern police equipment. Output at idle
is approximately 130 amperes. Current demand by both the vehicle and
all energized police equipment in excess of this amount during vehicle
idling will place the electrical system into a discharge condition.
Electrical power management systems should be applied if necessary to
avoid discharging the battery.

Power distribution connector

Power for aftermarket equipment can be obtained from the power
distribution connector located under the glove compartment. This
connector contains several fused power feeds and inputs available for the
addition of accessories. The following tables show the circuits available
for equipment.
