As title states....not much more to it

Only runnin 1200 watts so don't need a very big one but would prefer one of the fancy looking ones similar to this, even if it is bigger than I need it to be

Unfortunately the price of shipping a capacitor is probably gonna be a big chunk of the cost and you might not save much by getting one on here because of that.

Do you pretty much just want it for looks and for a readout, or do you actually have issues with your lights dimming that you believe warrants one? That'll help determine what you need.

I am going to get a better front batt and do the big 3 but for right now, im looking for a cap....completly for looks and a readout

Any reason you don't just want a super cool voltmeter?

If it's for looks, you probably want one with the general shape of that Power Acoustik one, where the cap is shaped kinda like an amp. On ebay there are some Planet Audio ones, 10 or 20 farad that have that kinda shape, but they might put some extra strain on your alternator. Not sure how bad.

Almost none. Leave the poor guy alone unless you have a cap he needs.

Caps don't hurt anything.

Fail. caps are extremely light. Shipping will not be much. It's batteries that weigh a ton and will kill you on shipping.
