I only own 13 vehicles at the moment so I guess you have me beat //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It was "10" a few posts ago //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

I have several rides...Hopefully I'll sell something eventiually...I think its closer to 10

i counted out how many i have that are running and street drivable...i didn't count my 69 MGB GT or my 81 T-top Capri RS...that are non running projects...I was off by 3...

I may go a little less on power...I was thinking my TRU Technologies Hammer on my Critical Mass UL 12...and using my two Zed made Planet Audio tube amps....or Stagger the power of my 6 ch ADS PowerPlate PH15 100 x2 on the mids and 50x2 on the highs.....since I was rounding off 1500 on the sub...I rough estimated about 500 on the front stage...though it may be less....I have a possible buyer of my UL12 so if it sells...I'll do something different on the substage...

im definitely taking it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

just waiting on the money to clear back into my account.

Here is a shot of the wiring in the trunk ...one side anyway...and the proto type Batcap power pack....

Figure out how that powerpack is supposed to take a 4g input and output yet?

**** was reading but skipped to the end cause there was so much bullshit in the middle

i really want to see how the hybrid handles the power being drained but then again it prob has a shit load of batts in it already...only thing would be that i could imagine that you would have to replace its battery reserve earlier than usual (dont know how much it is to replace those in hybrids)

I'm hoping to update the stock battery with two Batcap 800's...I have not test fit them as of yet...but it looks close...I'm sure to make them fit...I'll have to do some mods....I also want to weigh the stock battery against the two batcaps to figure if any weight change.....

but do these cars not have battery reserves for the electric motor or just the one up front? i mean i guess if you add enough electrical on top of what it already has it wont make a difference...GL and get this ish started! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I believe the batteries for the electric motor are isolated from the car electronics so you would not be able to 'tap' into them for your car stereo power.

That is correct there is a special battery pack in the rear behind the seat...reason seats don't fold or no ski hatch //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif It supplies the power for the electric motors...the rest of the car works like a standard car...Its over 100volts...can't remember the exact number....so it would be useless in car audio applications

I talked to the owner of batcap and you don't need an 'in' and an 'out' on the powerpack. I don't know what I was thinking. It just needs to be added to your wiring and the wire doesn't have to pass through the powerpack on the way to the amp. He suggested just use a distro block.
