Well said.

You don't need upgraded electrical for 1.2k. My system is running factory electrical and old battery on 1.2k just fine. You only need those ups if you're going for more like 2 or 3k.

1.2k RMS here on stock 100 amp alternator and replacement AGM with no sign of any electrical issues here for what it’s worth. That’s in the CX5 in signature.

So much wrong in this reply. Since you failed to mention the vehicle you drive, not everyone on the planet is gonna drive the same vehicle as you and don't bother upgrading the electrical. You need to take in consideration that there are 4 bangers out there with weak stock electrical that barely is enough for the car's needed everyday daily things such as a/c, heater, wipers, etc. So if a person decides to install say a 1000 watt amp and 1000 watt sub to existing stock electrical, more than likely that amp is gonna rob more amperage from the alt than anything else...leading to dimming headlights. I will agree tho that most bigger trucks/ SUV's have the most/best stock beefed up electrical out there. But...I certainly wouldn't ignore it if I were adding audio.

...I drive an import "4 banger." Compact cars probably can't handle 1.2k...my old motorcycle couldn't handle 200...but your average Honda Civic should be fine.

id upgrade the big 3 first, still not enough, upgrade to a bigger alt

bats dont produce power, they store it

I have an import 4 banger with a small alt and had no problem running four 8's on 1200 watts. It did not like the Z on 1500 though.

You ever find a HO alt for that import? I'd like to add watts to mine but the alt is the problem.
