[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8189403, member: 655960"] You would be okay with a 200 amp alternator for the system you described but, you also need to consider batteries. Along with the alternator rule of thumb there is a battery rule of thumb that says you need about 55 AH of battery per 1 kW. You Element probably has a 50-60 AH battery in it now so you're a bit low there if you plan to run the amp you have at 2Ω in the new setup and actually get some power out of it. Also, did you have a Solo x or a Solo Baric? There's a remarkable difference in the two and if you burned a Solo X up on 1250 watts, there's a real problem there and you certainly don't want to repeat that problem in the new setup. [/QUOTE]
