[QUOTE="bigred78797, post: 382809, member: 545232"] Hey guys it's me, As you guys know if getting prepared to start on my new project that's in my sig. OK, i have done tons of installs with systems with and extra battery and extra Alternators... but i have never ever tried to tackle anything this big before. I know all this stuff can fit in the car physically but i just need to know if i can supply the power to the beast as needed. So how much current draw do you think ill get from six 2000 watt amps... and yes they do actually put out 2000w clean... well close enough to it. Ok here is what i know... They use 1.4 Amps at idle ( don't really need to know that cuz they aren't gonna ever be idle. The book says that in operation they use 30 Amps or more.. emphasis on the MORE.
