[QUOTE="DNIndustry, post: 221497, member: 544188"] I am still semi confused as to the general concensus. Here is my situation. My 1996 blazer I have a 220 amp alt from dominick that is 150 amp at idle. An 4 year old optima red top. 0/1 ga wire spanning about 14 ft The 3 magic wires are upgraded with 0 ga welding cable. As far as current draw I have A mono block 1200.1 jbl to a brahma 15 A Rockford 300x A/B bridged An Audiocontrol 6xs and EQS These are all that are were running at the time. If I would turn the system volume up to about 50% I would get a dimmage to were my lights were none existent and my A/B amp would cut out. It could have been over heating but I would say it could be a voltage drop. I purchased a Batcap 400 100 farad cap to try and rectify it. Should this help. I also bought a new Redtop. ANy Ideas, suggestions, or comments..... [/QUOTE]
