[QUOTE="Stalin-ohaulic, post: 6381174, member: 585517"] It's good for basic understanding. It misleads on a couple of points but sort of touches on it. When he was talking about what you would need to create 2000 watts and said if your voltage dropped the amp would draw more current to make that same 2000 watts. That would be true but when the voltage drops the amp is no longer capable of drawing 2000 watts. They sort of say that when they show the 1860 watts or whatever but it's not clear for the noobs. Most noobs think that the amps just draw more current to make the same power when the voltage drops and it's simply not true. They don't put out as much power when the voltage drops. Also, he said that batteries are usually at around 13v. In reality under even the most minute draw, the battery quickly drops to ~12.6v. [/QUOTE]
