altenator or capacitor?

[audioarsonal 10+ year member]

It is a noob mistake to run out and buy the biggest cap they can find and think that solves all power issues.Yes caps do stbilize power but in most cases people are asking it to do more then it is designed.You need to have the power to supply the epuipment before it needs reserve.Money is better spent on batteries and alt's that produce power which gives you a better result.I have seen caps that go for $200 dollars.That money would be better spent on an extra battery then a cap.

Generally if your asking to use a cap you should probably be looking into power rather then reserve first.

you started car audio at 10 years of age?
Good for you. Why do you work at K-mart?

You should have a Pulitzer prize.

A Harvard Grad.

Something better than a K-Mart worker with car audio know-how at age 10.

Then don't get a cap!Buy an HO alt and a second battery and you should probably replace the factory one as well.

It takes a lot to produce 8000 watts and it ain't cheap.You can't just but the biggest amps you can find and expect your stock system to handle it.So you can upgrade your eletrical and spend the money there or smoke the amps and spend your money there!You choose.

exactly. this is the reason i rarely come here anymore.. but i do like to help people who actually do sincerely ask for it

I honestly wish you would just GTFO or STFU. Take your pick. All I see you do is come here and b!tch about how you do not like it here and how you rarely come here. Do everyone a favor and go back to DIYMA or wherever.

Oh, and no one really cares that in theory caps may serve a useful purpose. The fact is that just getting a cap is not going to do this guy any good whatsoever. I know that you know this.

Yeah, well your argument in this instance is academic at best.

But my main point to you is that I am sick of seeing you act like an old woman on this forum. If you don't like the forum that's fine. No one said it was for everyone.
