Additional information:
Description:

What is this voltage control box?

This voltage control box is specified for Austin Healey BJ8 models using a generator and external voltage regulation. It controls charging output to maintain correct system voltage and battery condition.

Key benefits

  • Correct specification for BJ8 charging systems
  • Maintains stable voltage under varying electrical load
  • Protects battery and electrical components
  • Suitable for standard road use and restoration work

Will this fit my Austin Healey BJ8?

Yes, if the car retains a generator and control box setup.

  • BJ8 models fitted with a 12-volt dynamo and external control box

Not suitable for:

  • BN1–BJ7 models using earlier control box specifications
  • Cars converted to alternator charging systems

What’s included

  • Voltage control box assembly

Mounting hardware and wiring are not included.

Technical details

  • 12-volt generator-controlled charging system
  • BJ8-specific control box specification
  • External regulation design

Installation & setup

Designed as a direct replacement for BJ8 generator-based systems. Charging output should be checked after installation. Wiring condition, earth continuity, and generator health all influence final performance.

Why choose this part?

BJ8 models use a different control box specification compared to earlier Big Healeys. This unit avoids compatibility issues that can arise when earlier regulator types are fitted incorrectly.

Have an earlier Big Healey?

BN1 to BJ7 models use an earlier voltage control box specification. If the car is BN1–BJ7 and retains a generator system, the earlier control box should be used.

FAQs

Is this the same as BN1–BJ7 control boxes?

No. BJ8 models use a different control box specification and should not use earlier regulator types.

Will this work with an alternator conversion?

No. Alternator systems regulate voltage differently and do not use this type of control box.

Do I need to adjust it after fitting?

Charging voltage should always be verified after installation. Minor adjustment may be required depending on generator condition.
