We did some running tests with the electrical load connected
yesterday, maximum temperature reached was 94 Deg C or 201 Deg F in
old money.

No problems with anything, the engine ran well for over an hour and
the alternator hardly got warm. The test load was 1.5kW, the engine is
11hp so hardly stretching itself!
