car caps i have seen 1-180F have clamed to be digital caps and as i didnt know what the difference was i fitted standard electrolytics 20x33000mF 16V also the size worred me as a 1-5F look roughly the size i would expect but the larger 10-180F it looks to small if u know what i mean 180F looks...

the batts will put more load on an alt while they charge but once there charged its just trickle current into the batts but the batts shouldent get as low if u use 2 (for same usage) just think of a flat batt 11Vish that pulls alot of current but if u have 2 it shouldent get as low(for the...

sorry my mistake with the batt misread and is the cap esr u stated for an electrolytic or digital cap? batts have evolved a bit havent they im used to batts that output upto 200A, 500A short that link u provided they can output over 1000A, 5000A short thats good i now see y people arnt...

cap esr 0.01ohm if u let it it WILL pull 1000s of amps from the supply batt esr 5Mohm it will probible pull 50A cap discharge 1000s of amps batt dischage maybe 200A

sorry i know ur just tryin to get a reasonable answer for ur problem thats y i posted but the **** had to come back

and his alt will be able to run his system with 2 batts u can run 1 mill batts on 1 alt as long as they are charged so whats ur problem?

**** u **** 2 bulbs in parallel attatched to a batt yes understand so far now put a resistor in series with 1 bulb (higher resistance return path) still understand now does that effect the other bulb? esr is the resistance (equivalent series resistance) got it?

most batts fall to 7/8V when u crank and the voltage reg in an alt isnt very stable as they use high power reggys rather than persision costs to much to be both so with heavy varing loads the alt voltage can fall easly so the battery has to pickup the slack so 2 batts will greatly improve...

not unless u run ur sound without the car running for long periods of time to be honest i didnt think it was a ground and if u fit a second batt u will probibly notice ur truck crankin easyer and ur stereo and lights will stay on when u crank as the supply wont fall as much

batts in parallel resistors in parallel same thing 2 batts esr=1/rt=1/batt1 imp + 1/batt2 imp so if both have same esr it will half it right? r u proven wronge? and i have already stated that the lights dimming wont be a amp ground problem if it was a ground problem it would be with ur...

personly i would get both say a 50-80Ah batt 1-5F cap both as close to the amp/s as possible if ur gettin dimmin lights i would go for a batt first and like i said before i cannt notice the difference of a cap untill im running about 800W into my sub

i think it all comes down to sound quality some people just like the music as loud as possible and cant hear the difference(coz there systems are always clipping) where as people who are after high quality can hear the difference and like it so cap vs batt is down to quality vs volume good...

ive used my bass amp to drive 8 scoopbins with 18" turbomax drivers 1.4KW each i think and it sounded as good as a crown 4KW mains amp the difference the caps make is that between 800w-3KW there is more punch the bass is tighter without them it just doesnt sound right

i can only hear a difference when im drivin my sub with about 800+W RMS below that the difference is inaudible(to me anyway)

an amp ground problem would affect the sound not the car lights i would go for a bigger or another batt i use caps & a batt to help with the sound quality not to help the lights but they go hand in hand ps i use 20x33000mF(0.66F) 16V electrolytic caps in parallel next to my amp im not...
