Anyone see this new PMR... They said that the Goliath was pullin about 560 amps....anyone ever test this beast? They were explaining how they get 5K watts out of it...was like 12x560=6???+ watts...-heat and something else which gets to 5K

I cant see an amp like this really pullin 560 amps. You need like at least 2 300amp alts to keep up with that alone...plus all the other lighthing and speakers and amps in that car...

i saw part of it but not where they were explaining it......i wouldn't think it'd pull that many watts but who knows....i didn't see any extra alts

here's the amp:

the explaination was:

elementary gyasi, it's actually ohm's law P = E * I. you take 12V you multiply that by 540A which gives you roughly 6480W, take away heat and inefficiency, and we're right at 5000. ya got that chaps?

which is about 77% efficient, but i'm pretty sure it's rated at 5000W at 14.4V, so it's probably under 500A of current draw.
