[QUOTE="Jepalan, post: 8248330, member: 655519"] [I]"So I grab the resistor my cap came with and drop it into the fuse holder and I feel it get hot but I get no power to my cap or amp"[/I] This may be a stupid question, but after charging the capacitor did you put your normal in-line fuse back in? The resistor is just for charging the cap before connecting thing up so it doesn't spark, or for discharging the cap when disconnecting. You don't power your system through the resistor. [/QUOTE]
