[QUOTE="LiveAudio911, post: 7074937, member: 622999"] A CapCell is NOT Like a battery its "Semi-Like" a battery.. Inside those CapCell's are small batteries all parallel with each other.. then they are connected to 1, 2, 3 or more 'Caps'... some of them you can actually start a small 4 cyld. with.. but they are still CRAP... Here is something to think about.. Even with 2 batteries or this CrapCell... the power still has to come from the ALT.. if you seen any improvement in all power wise it would be really short lived.. If your ALT cant keep up with the first battery.. its not gonna keep up with a second battery... or CrapCell for that matter.. Basic math example: 110 alt... car uses aprox 70 alts (Lights and all) your amp 1000 W lets say 70 amps or so.. depending on the Amp.. thats 140 amps already.. plus any additional equipment.. Then you have to consider.. a battery recharge rate.. your alt doesnt kick in untill after the juice is pulled from the battery.. then the alt kicks in.. so if your battery is a POS stock crap that cant store enough juice.. yoru alt cant really keep up either.. Thats where a second battery comes in.. No matter what you do.. at some point you have to upgrade the Alt.. or charge your batteries.. ALts dont re-charge.. they only keep a battery at their level.. Put a half dead bat in.. its gonna stay half dead.. [/QUOTE]
