Wouldnt that have a higher voltage or would you run into problems like faster

The Battery is just there to start your engine. Once the engine is running
everything electrical is powered by the alternator. So in another words
wherever you hook it up, if the engine is running the alt is powering the
lights. The voltage regulator keeps the the voltage constant. peace out
