4 BTL 15's in a Fiesta
FiQ150db replied to FiQ150db's topic in Member Videos - Host 'em & Post 'em! System Vids / Off Topic
Thats an old video, nothing was scoped or anything. Plus the refresh rate of my phones camcorder doesnt help, in person they are all perfectly in sync. Running two Atomic D5000.1's -
How many D3100's ?
FiQ150db replied to FiQ150db's topic in XS Power Batteries / Chargers! (and other stuff too)
At the moment I am running Dynasty High rate AGM batteries with that alt. I can play for around 3-4 minutes before voltage drops below 12v at which point I turn it down. It takes a few seconds for the voltage to return back to a healthy state. Going with the D3100's would there be a huge noticable difference over the Dynastys ? -
Running two Atomic 5000.1's, just wondering how many D3100's will be needed to run it all day at shows etc ? Alt wise I'm running a 270a unit from you guys.

Very disappointed

Be glad your not in my spot. Believe me when I say that. And for it not working I guess the courier must have dropped it. (Detect the sarcasm) -
They are awesome.

Took it to a alt specialist yesterday. Blown regulator, blown rectifier, cracked rectifier. They were pretty shocked about it.
-
My alt from day one has never gone above 14.1v. It was meant to be adjustable, it turned out it wasn't. Then got told the VCM will be out soon, still not out. Now alt does this. It was meant to charge at 14.9 but never did I once see anything close to that even on cold days. Im in the UK so its a PITA for me, but the UK distro is doing all he can to help me .

No soot anywhere.

No belt squeal at all. Will look for soot like residue around the casing.
-
Its not Mechman but its apparantly Manufactured by them. Is that a major factor in this ?
-
Car is a Ford Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S, Alt is a Ford 6G 270a unit. No modules of any sort. The alt worked fine for the first few months.

The alt im running cuts out on me intermittently. Will be fine one second then with no load (audio) it cuts out and im running on pure battery power. Does it with no warning and goes straight from 14v+ to 12.7v. Stays out for random amounts of time, the longest being 20 mins. So far I have been told its due to belt slip. I am running a 6 toothed belt and when playing hard with 10kw when the alt decides to work, my voltage doesnt drop below 13.3-4v. That leaves me to suspect it isn't belt slip. Today I turned the car on and alt isnt out putting any voltage. Checked all wires, jiggled a few - still nothing. 30 mins of driving later - still nothing. Opinions ? (Note: I haven't named the manufacturers as this is a ongoing situation, I dont see the need to bad mouth someone for no reason hence the anonimity)

What is the value of the inductors on the crossovers for the XXX components ? My install shook them heavily and broke them clean off.

Erm, I'm a bit baffled

Hi Scottie Well its cost me $100+ to get the thing fitted and if I were to take it off I would be alt-less as my old HO has been sold and my standard one has also been sold. Guess I have no option but to wait for the VCM. -

Also got this email from the Xspower distro who was told this: I am sure he is overlooking it… please see page 11 showing the rear of the alternator. The red thing is the internal adjustable regulator, and the round hole on the top side is the potentiometer. It is a plastic pot, so make sure he is gentle when adjusting or he could strip it out. Looking at the catalogue that alt has a clearly visible screw on it. Mine clearly does not. -
Have around $500 to spend on 2 batteries including shipping. Looking for something along the lines of a NSB90, D3100 etc. Shipping is to IG3 8DN WHYG ?

and 3.5 cubes per woofer is ok ? Don't want them to be very peaky.
