[QUOTE="Crapstain, post: 393337, member: 549712"] I would get a battery because, Thay store way more power then a cap and because the cap will run out of power and it doesent need to recharge every time the sub hits. put it this way, if you hook up a Capacitor to the amp and just run the cap it will get at lest 1-10 second vs. a battery you can run it for at lest 10-30 minutes. because it is ment for storing power. and it will be cheeper to get a battery... Look at it this way, people going for a world record use a shit load for batterys because thay store more power then a cap and then you can get more power out of the amp, you would need like 1000 caps to compare to a battry. if you want your lights to stop dimming use a cap but if you want a lot of back-up power use a battrey. But I think that Capacitor's look cool... [/QUOTE]
