[QUOTE="ahole-ic, post: 6731144, member: 619324"] ugh. Clearly that's not correct. It's that you're not worth arguing with and your new friend said he would not argue yet is in here doing just that. A battery will keep the voltage from dropping below 12 volts for a while, while the amplifier operates less efficiently causing it to draw more current. The battery/s will deplete on heavy draw especially the (now known to be fictional) 5000 watts worth of draw. That is almost 400 amps of current at 12v while the amp is putting out 5kw. It won't take long in that scenario, which is what I responded to. Will it damage the alt to recharge 2 batteries and an amplifier that won't let up? The answer really depends on how long this goes on, but my original post is correct. You are wrong in recommending this. You're sending other people down the wrong path. Just because you do it does not make it right. Just because something works for now does not make it a good idea. You can both circle jerk until you spooge this forum full of your bs but it doesn't make you right. [/QUOTE]
