[QUOTE="maxxguy1, post: 1873787, member: 563839"] I will say this I could cair less about one persons test that were done several years ago on the amps he builds himself with huge power suplies in them that don't rely need a cap to start with, I know from my personal exsperences that a cap will help a non regulated amp not a lot but it helps, I know it won't help the amp put out more power but the job of a cap is to drain when the amp needs the current it is there to give it, but once the cap is drained the cap has to recharge itself. A batcap is a small battery that is desined to give current as fast as a cap will, a battery can only discharge current so fast per second wile a batcap or just a cap can do like several times that in that one second and the batcap itself will stay charged like a battery untill it is draind wile on the otherhand a regular cap starts to drain wants its unhooked from the car or its power or ground supply. OH and by the way I have tryed it both without a cap and with a cap and it helped a little on the voltage drop at the amp but when I put the batcap 800's in there it was a night and day difference between no batcap and a batcap, I am running a autotek mm4000.1d and I can blow 400 amps of fuse power at .25 on just battery power without the batcaps but with the batcaps it holds that kind of current perfectly and my 1/0's are no longer than 2 feet from the batteries to the amps so don't tell me I don't know what I am talkin about man. lolol [/QUOTE]
