[QUOTE="Team Hammer, post: 2488084, member: 572786"] You mean Watts being consumed not volume being turned down. Remember a Watt is a Watt! That 140amp alt only has a 30amp overhead to run all the add on stuff. HU, Amps, Lights etc... When you crank it up the alt is going to running your system and has nothing left for charging your battery. It's at this point your car is running off the battery now. 10k watts is 695 amps at 14.4 volts, you better have a 400 amp bttery charger in your trunk! [/QUOTE]
