One of these products will kill all alternator noise. Requires installation at the alternator.

If the source is from the electric fuel pump then a filter will have to be placed at the leads of the pump. Likely requires dropping the gas tank to add the filter. Other things like wiper motor noise will require filtering at the motor. Where else and what is the source of the noise? I don't know that there is a one stop add on filter that will take care of all of the noises generated in vehicles today.

There's basically two noise paths: (a) noise on the DC line, most likely alternator noise, and (b) radiated noise generated by devices like motors, switches, fuel injectors, ABS pumps, AC motors, and computers within the vehicle. (A) is easy to solve with one of the Newmar filters. (B) requires finding the source and adding a suitable filters to each device very close to the source.

Folks,
Anyone know of a commercial product that I can use to power my ARGO V
in my 2006 Explorer?

Previously ran Scouts and Argo in a 2000 Explorer with some noise but workable. I can not lick the noise problem in the 2006 Explorer and need
to
be independent of the car's  battery.

    Need to put out some counties.  Help!
                                                               Thanks,
                                                            Jim,  K4CFA



I'm not sure I understand the question.

Are you asking about a connector or a noise problem?

Best post to Ten-Tec516 reflector. Maybe someone there who's done mobile
can help you.
