[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8919532, member: 683408"] I certainly hope you didn't read it that way. I tried to write it for someone new, who seems to be diving in headfirst with both feet. I asked the singular question if he had CCA or full copper wire, because THAT matters to current capability. The reference to OFC was that compared to regular copper, the OFC is wasted money. I put it in parentheses because it is an independent thought, but connected to the main thought. And it's a logical step that he may get sold on the [U]hype[/U] of OFC vs. plain copper, considering he has two $50 "5 Farad caps" that may be doing more harm that good (sold on the [U]hype[/U]). There is no inference anywhere in my post that CCA is as good as full-copper, or OFC cabling, nor would there ever be. Testing a "5Farad" $50 capacitor. Voltage drops more under load with cap in place. This is not the only test on YT that shows this same issue: [MEDIA=youtube]mxw7vk9evyo[/MEDIA] Remember: If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. [/QUOTE]
