Dude, that video is funny as shit! LOL! I am sooo glad you got those on tape!

When will you have these beautiful babies on your site?!

also keep in mind, this will strain the shit out of the alt in your setup, the caps will be steeling from the amps to recharge...
Isn't that what batteries do in a multi-battery setup anyway? Again I'm not being condescending, I'm looking for answers with depth, sorry If I'm annoying you with defensive questions.
well yeah... BUT... a battery will sustain a lot longer charge to keep voltages up longer
-
the less ground points you have the better... the more ground points you have the more chances for noise to be introduced into the system
-
Alpine makes a point, there are uses for caps... but I do not think in his application it will help...
-
also keep in mind, this will strain the shit out of the alt in your setup, the caps will be steeling from the amps to recharge...
A cap is good for if you have lets say a 300 amp alt and only draw 250 amps at full load and you are having voltage drop from the front to the back... but in your case it will prolly hurt you...
-
well, if you have to have caps, re: you already have them, wire them like you listed... BUT, I would move the caps close to the amps, ground the amps to the cap and ground the cap to the chassis... even a cheap walmart battery would be better than a cap, unless you are seeing some wicked voltage drop....
-
did you double check the ground connection to the frame??
-
antec, thermaltake, antec and newegg is cheaper than tigerdirect...
-
you could also contact mechman and ask him about a smaller pulley for the alt to get the voltage and rpm's up on the alt at idle.... (If it only happens at idle)

You realize that is gonna be windy!

Yeah I live near Tullahoma, I'll be up in Lebanon on 2/26 for freezefest.
EXO is coming to stay with me for a while around that time to visit and to run Frankenstein through Freezefest now that I have the HDC4's are in it! (He is loving the way people say you cannot mix sub sizes and what Franky can do!) (BTW, quite a bit louder than when you heard it!!) So Ex will be running Franky, Michelle will be running her car, I am bringing Kong and HOPEFULLY SPL Hell will have the new amps in and I am gonna try to set the new Park and Pound record in it... So TechForce will be 4 deep at FreezeFest!

funny video
i will use my visual example for those who need it. 40hz clipped sine wave with harmonic distortion
the DD-1 will turn red whenever there is a frequency besides 40hz and 1000hz. this is because of harmonic distortion, which occurs from clipping
the dd-1 allows 1% thd (total harmonic distortion)
this is why it isnt an on/off red light, it varies in light as the power increases in higher order harmonics
Thank you! I did not know the technical term or have visuals, however most amps rate their amps output power beyond the point of clipping, hence "THD" (Total Harmonic Distortion)...
-
I think I just got dumber by reading this. Even that yahoo explanation has serious problems.
LOL! Are you talking about my post or this thread in general?
-
OK, in my opinion I see your point about the lights lighting up your leds before the DD1 lights up. But, you have to understand that the DD1 is designed to light up when the clipping is high enough to possibly damage equipment. A slight amount of dc can be passed without harming equipment.
I could be wrong and it could be designed to detect at the first sign of DC, but I dunno... but I am assuming that factor was thought about while designing the DD1...

WWTTFFF?????? LMAO!
-
Anyone remember GORF??? It was like Galaga but an earlier version before arcade games existed... I had it on my comodore VIC20 lol!
-
I don't know what it is but, whenever I see UPS drop off a box and it looks like the top picture, I just light up!!!! I know it is "just" sound deadener, but SS is "just" deanener like the Bugatti Veyron is "just" a car!

He is getting old...

pretty dam nice!!!!!!

do you take bribes? Ill start moving topics over as I come across them.
lol.... dick!

She needs 4 15's in a wall...
also, I need to talk to you about another youtube graphics page....
click on "ad" buttons on smd site, looking for an old one
in SMD Forums Technical Difficulty Area - have a technical problem with the site? let us know, we will try to fix it!

As far as N8 not liking TechForce, is because of a personal confrontation that happened some time ago and has nothing to do with my business ethics. N8 is entitled to his opinion, just as you and I are...
Not once have I cheated anyone or had any issues with anyone that I am aware of. I have ALWAYS sent extra decals or went the extra mile for people... The reason I am not on SMD anymore is because I cannot keep up with all the messages and have not been able to work to my full potential lately. You guys just do not realize how much traffic SMD creates for it's partners! LOL! Trust me, even the decal guy got overrun with business thanks to SMD! I am in financial distress right now because of my medical expenses and the fact I have been missing a lot of work... It has NOTHING to do with ripping people off or my business ethics...
If anyone has an issue with me, please contact me @ [email protected], and I will make it right... but out of respect for Steve and SMD, I do not want to solicit on here without being able to afford my SMD Partnership anymore, that would not be fair to Steve... he's got a family to feed also and this is how he makes a living...
So, I want to put a stop to all the rumors and trash talk right now... I am over hear minding my own business trying to keep the lights on and I do not bother anybody. I do miss being on SMD and if I had more time and felt better I would be all over the place like I used to... I just don't think it is coo of people to develop opinions on someone's personal feelings towards me... If N8 wants to tell you what happened, I have no problem with that... But, I will leave that his decision... It is just a matter of differences in opinion or a difference on how we do things... nothing to do with my integrity...
If ANYONE has a complaint against techforce, please feel free to express it and I will check back to see and work it out with you...
PS-If you are going to form your opinion on me and my character over a post that was posted on here while people think my back was turned, then dam... I really do not need your business... do not mean to sound cocky but I am a very honest person and I take heart in that...
