[QUOTE="iLL Ridge, post: 8526329, member: 626512"] I'm testing this new digital volt/amp meter. Not sure of accuracy-- doesn't seem too far off. I've got it wired to only measure my mono amp's current draw. And voltage wired to a common ground. 0 gauge from stock battery to trunk. 4 gauge to amps 0 gauge ground Anyway with [B]car running[/B]- sub amp on, but no volume-- 14.4-14.1V 1.0 amps Lowest voltage on music- 13.3v --50 amps biggest peak i've seen so far. I think I just answered my own question------ Running my amp at 4ohms rated at 800 rms--- I'm only going to see 500-600 watts on average and only on peaks-- briefly. 13v*50 amps = 650 watts --- right there at it-- hmm. And i guess that digital meter is pretty accurate-- close enough [/QUOTE]
