I am with Bruce on this. I would be worried about why you are blowing isolators. I am wondering if you are installing insolators that are too small.

The next thing I can think of is you have an intermittent open connection on the reference voltage line at the alternator. I had that once and it was a simple problem that the connector at the alternator lost tension. I squeezed it a little with pliers and never had that problem again.

I only saw the problem because I occasionally monitor the charging voltage whenever I am driving. My suggestion is you do this in the future whatever isolator replacement option you choose.

Here are a few cheap meters that plug in to the cigarette lighter receptical:

I bought 10 of the following one time and gave them away to people:
