  1. Thanks for the input man.

    I was watching Barevids (Sam) on YT and he mentioned that some Brazilian amps dont have output inductors as filters (probably for cost down).  The justification from Taramps was that "the subwoofer is a large inductor" and that it would filter out high frequency noise in the same manner that an inductor in the amp would filter out noise.  Makes sense, but sucks that the subs would have to dissipate that heat and noise.

    For others reading, not all Taramps amps omit the output filter inductor... some do have them.

    You cant say a team doesn't deserve to win just because some of their fans are dickheads, all teams have those dickhead fans, and if you do some searching you can find similar events taking place with almost any teams fans,

    hyped up drunk idiots all being turned loose into the streets after a sporting event is a recipe for disaster.

     

    Yeah but Philly tho.

  3. Keep in mind your PCM controlled alt will stop charging occasionally so your cap bank will discharge just like a battery will.  If you dont mind having the battery-light on, then you can get a 'single wire' regulator on your alt so that you charge at 14.2-15V (depending on temperature) all the time.

    Or you can unplug your battery current sensor and charge at 13.8V all the time.  You wont get a battery light in this case.

    I would add battery if you leave your alt alone, but thats just my opinion from my experience dealing with a PCM controlled alt with (2) AA5Ks at 0.35ohm.

  4. Recently I noticed (while charging AGM XS batteries) that my PSC60 makes a chirping/buzzing sound when its in Float Charge mode (13.5V).  It sounds kinda like what an amp sounds like when its clipping.

    I dont recall this noise in the past.  Its sounds bad enough that I dont want to leave it on overnight in charge or recovery mode.  Cant get a response from XS Power on the matter.

    Any input?  Are your chargers rather quiet?

    I'll get a video tonight when I get into the garage.
