Voltage drop with good electrical. What am I doing wrong?

I know E I was not referring to you //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
Loud when you strap the amps it changes alot.. E can explain it in technical terms that I can't, but strapping changes alot of factors ..

needless to say the amplifier efficiency is not as good strapped especially when being run well below what they rate at. we all know they will do .5 ohms each but that is with massive electrical.

Tommy had his strapped and pulled insane power from them at 2 ohm but he had wicked electrical and was still drawing close to 400 amps IIRC ( cant find the thread )

my point is your drawing gobs of current that you cannot supply. to ease it up some unstrap the amps so the amps efficiency will go back up to where they are rated at.
I'd be interested in hearing the technicalities of this, eCrack where are you?!

 
When the alternator cannot handle the demand placed upon it' date=' and the voltage falls to the battery's domain: The battery "reserve" will help voltage @ this point. Not above it.
During music, since the amount of draw is varied: If the alternator "falls behind" to the point of batteries being used, the battery will discharge until the music selection reaches a point that the draw demand is less. Then the alternator will be the source again and be taxed by draw and charge the batteries.

Tried to keep it as casually worded as possible.[/quote']

That’s all true but the op was asking what he is doing wrong because he is seeing his voltage drop with a stock alt trying to keep up with everything plus two extra batteries. Those extra batteries are costing him about 20amps of alternator power 10 amps each. I don’t think the op said whether he was playing music or doing a burp when he was seeing his voltage drop. It kind of sounded like he was talking about a burp. He was also talking about what his coils are wired to but not taking box rise into consideration. Maybe the op can clear up whether he is playing music or burping. Extra batteries on a stock alt is all good for burps but not doing much good for daily driving use.

I was clearing up a confusion that was not posted in the OP. But, no worries. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

My setup is only for daily
