How much amps should a alternator read???

[scootro]

Well I think my 94’ lightning’s alternator might be on its last leg.

I tested my alternator tonight and it read about 30 amps shouldn’t it be reading a constant 45 or high amps????

Anyone got any suggestion on where I can get a direct replacement alternator with the stock 95 amperage????? I’ll regret replacing this with a oreilly or autozone alternator!

What did you test it with?
What all was on when it was tested?
What rpm was it tested at ?
