Checked the charging system out this morning, looks like my alternator puked... Belts are fine & tensioned properly. Did some quick DVM measurements with the engine idling resulted in only 11.4V with no extra accessories on, which dropped to about 11.2 with the headlights on & heater fan running @ max. Shutting the engine off and taking the same measurements resulted in 12.5V with lights off and 11.9 with lights on, so the battery is healthy.
