With a nice big batt, you can run a 4 pill pretty easy. 8)

You can run a 5 pill with good power cable and a extra battery you should maintain voltage well . Depending on you vehicle make and engine larger alternator's are available. I run a 2x4 on a 140 amp alternator I built and it stays at 15.2 volts at all times but before that I ran the stock 90 amp with 2 battery's and it was still OK ..

i hope your meter is wrong.. 15.2v will kill your battery pretty fast!
that is over 2.5v per cell when charging.. you will cook the plates and ruin the battery.
