But the engine is going to turn the alternator regardless... As the electrical load increases the mechanical load on the engine does not. The only problem you may run in to is that there is not enough amperage left to recharge the battery. If you remove the mechanical load of the AC compressor from the engine, you will increase the MPG.

Free energy! Get as much electricity as you want from any size engine!

Take a physics class before you embarass yourself anymore.

WRONG! As the electrical load increases it requires more power to turn the alternator. You're describing perpetual motion of the first kind.

The electrical load is linear to the horsepower demand; 746 watts equals one horsepower minus frictional and resistive losses.
