Quoting Bricol: I run mine through winter - heated seats, heated screen, heater, stereo, headlights on in a morning and evening commute, with a Banner - no problems. Alternator, in good nick, is easily capable of powering all that lot.
Another thread describes the problem of alternators whose pulley wheels run them too slow to charge at low revs. But AFAIK that would be revealed by the ignition warning light staying on.
