I got one of those volt meters that plugs into the lighter. It reads low, 10.5 or 11.0 when I rev the engine past 2K rpm. Using a volt meter, the battery reads 12.76 and the lighter voltmeter reads 12.8. I also ran the meter in my other car and get the same 12.1 and around 14 when I rev the engine. I just reinstalled a nos lighter and cleaned all the contacts. In the springtime I removed all of the fuses and cleaned all the contacts so I bet they are ok. Any ideas about this low voltage? Where does the power for the lighter come from? BTW, I don't have any issues with my charging system, it was checked at my last oil change about a month ago and the charging light goes off when I start the car.
thanks
