My Disco 96 has a 100 amps Alternator.

How do I measure the TOTAL amps drawn by my car?

Just wanted to know how many Amps I have available for my HHO Gen

Note: The HHO is not installed yet

Thanks,

You have to use an inductive ammeter. Connect it to your negative battery cable, most cars have a few positive cables, the ground cable will measure all current.
