[QUOTE="Alpineforever, post: 4193795, member: 585728"] So you want to run 24 volts to a car amplifier designed to run on 12v??? And you want those 24 volts to go to your cars electrical system which is designed to also run on 12 volts??? Does this even sound safe to you?? Good way to fry most of the electrical components in your car... Also will probably kill your amplifier(s) as most newer amplifier can't take that kind of power, some very rare old ones can (I don't remember why, I want to say they used unregulated power sources, but this just sounds wrong). Anyways it's a bad idea, maybe if you parralled 2 8 volt batteries and only ran these to your amplifier, but 24 volts is a bad idea [/QUOTE]
