[QUOTE="Johnny Drama, post: 1851181, member: 554719"] Are you having voltage problems? What vehicle? A cap is only a bandade for the problem. Your car runs off its alternator when running. If your alternator is having issues charging and maintaining your voltage with your stereo on a cap will do nothing more then drain more off the already failing alternator. That being said...If you are experiencing this problem and dont have the money to fully upgrade your electrical system, try adding a dedicated battery for the stereo with a battery isolator so that you have no issues starting you car if the stereo battery dies. If you have no voltage drop problem or the problem is minimum, why spend the money on something that isnt going to help you? [/QUOTE]
