Default Re: Where Do Xtra Electrons Go?

I presume that hybrids work in the same manner as conventional ICE cars. In the case of a conventional ICE, the alternator generates power that is either: A) used immediately, B) charges the battery, or C) is bled off with the regulator/rectifier. Mostly it becomes heat.
