I'm looking to start competing in MECA this year so I need a good power supply for my setup.
I have roughly 1600w rms on tap, but I'm not sure how much amperage the PS would need to be. I would think 80a would be sufficient, but not sure.
If I figure the (somewhat) standard 13.8v PS, ohm's gives me 115amps, but I just don't see this as that would be full tilt.
Thoughts? I know we have a lot of competitors here that use these so maybe they will chime in.
Also, my battery is getting pretty low. Do you suggest I buy a new batter, too, or will a power supply do fine? I don't mind dimming headlights while driving. I just need something that will keep me up and running while competing.
