does the alternator have enough output to supply all the current needed? I do know that some high specced Ford Focuses don't - and after a few mornings use of a lot of accessories on short journeys can suffer flat batteries. |
The alternator should have enough power to supply the needed current by almost all those.
You may need all of them except for items 3 and 6 in a long, cold and foggy trip (which is supposed to last much longer because of the low travelling speed).
