Bluetooth Voltage regulator

[Armyvet25]

First some background...88 Dodge D100, has a 69 Dodge Charger 383(eventually going in my 71 Charger)
The previous owner was going to build a race truck, installed the 383/727/8-3/4 posi.
But, he used for some reason the old square style Alt by cut and welding the Alt brackets from the original small block, while driving recently, charging was dropping to 10-11.5 volts, V-reg right...not so fast, I first changed the Alt fuckery back to a 70-71 roundback correct alt, acted the same, so, I replaced the V-reg and gave it new connections and a good ground, same problem, plus it over charges, at idle, 12.3v, in gear at a stop, 10-11.5v, at higher rpm's get to 16v+. And the over charging also started immediately after alt change and before v-reg change but still acts the same with new v-reg
*
Now the bluetooth part, disconnect the V-reg, does the exact same thing. How the F is it charging?
*
Possible bad Alt?
*
Why a D100 on FBBO? 69 Dodge 383 Charger engine and going in my 71 Charger.
New battery, NOS never used v-reg, used 70-71 alt

A lot of views, no ideas.....well, how about a good replacement alternator, that won't be to hard to re-use current stock brackets

Electrically, the basic charging system consists of 3 things.. battery, regulator and alternator. Only thing beyond that is the wiring associated with all 3 and mechanical energy needed to spin the alternator. Curious why the Bluetooth regulator is needed. Perhaps it's not a plug-n-play unit, but requires programming ? Proper pulley on alt ? If all the proper and working stock type components are in place ,should work fine as intended.

Check the supply to the regulator
What's the voltage going into the regulator, voltage drop can cause problems.
Does the voltage at the B+ on the Alternator and the positive battery terminal read the same ,If there's an Amp meter, connections are worth checking too

Bluetooth???? That was a play on words because when disconnected it was still over charging

will check these things

Sorry, but don't get how anything you are having a problem with relates to the word " Bluetooth ".

charges wireless...lol, still was over charging without the v-reg being plugged in...I'm more curious how you were trying to explain the whole plug-n-play like one really existed
