anyone using a bat cap?

Has anyone used a bat cap to help stabilize voltage spikes? I am using golf kart batteries and the internal resistance they build up will sometimes result in a major voltage drop. I am not ready to switch to kinetics due to price but looking for another alternative.

we're running a 2000 under the hood and twin 800's in back, Voltage never drops below 13.1 with a sundown SAZ-1500 @ .5 ohm

have you found it is better to put the BatCap as close to the amp as possible or next to the battery bank.

To the OP, you dont want to spend money on batts with a decent internal voltage, but you are willing to spend money on a batcap as a bandaide?
