  1. Anyone ever put a XL in a 4th order? I put (1) XL 15" cause I wanted to hit some of those low lows. Mainly because I like to listen to DECAF mixes. This box is killing my hatch, I had to remove my back glass wiper arm, because it murdered the gasket. It got to the point that you couldn't hear the music cleanly due to the rattling. After removing the wiper arm and the motor, clean music lasted for about 3 weeks. Then the rear lift gate flexed so much that it broke the center support, part of its structural support. It broke it in half which was about 3 inch's wide. XL is mean I can't wait for two. :lol:

    Man that looks like it'll do some damage... good.gif

  2. 5 batteries in series? hmmm.... i think not.

    bus bars are mostly a look thing.

    copper is way more conductive than aluminum.

    I might have meant to say parallel ( but they are positive to positive, negative to negative) I always get those confused... :lol:

  3. Just depends on what set up your running really :pardon:

    A lot of them are just for show but once you get into big power the physics of it comes into play.

    Like through copper wire, running a lot of power will make it get hot, heat is something you dont want as it means wasted power, busbars are really good ways of dissipating heat and getting real efficient transfer of power,

    basically if you use a busbar, your never gonna have to upgrade :drinks: as its the best way of linking batteries.

    Plus it makes it look real good with out all the wires :santa:

    Oh btw if you do decide to go for busbars I would go for aluminium :good:

    Its only slightly less conductive than copper and for the money difference between them its worth going with alu, coppers real expensive these days plus you can polish aluminium up to near chrome like mirror :ban2: copper tends to tarnish and go off colour as time passes.

    I would like to not have to upgrade after this as I want to be done with my electrical once I get my Singer alt (350a and my current DC 270xp) 3 runs of 0awg per +/- . I am apprehensive about the heat that may be produced but I do not think that I will be near the power load that would cause a great deal of heat... or so I hope. :peepwall:

    I like the look of the aluminum more and the price variance is just :yahoo:

  4. Looks alone is good enough to me. I got 1/4" copper bar, bronze hardware( nuts, washers, and bolts) in 50 piece packs from McMaster-Carr's website. All for 45$.

    Cleaned up the wiring, copper looks sexy, and not to mention the copper is a great conductor.

    Well worth it to me.

    Thanks for the site info. I was thinking about the look factor and that is a very strong draw... I know copper is more conductive to aluminum (second to silver) but i'm not a huge fan of that color, do you think that there would be much of a difference if I went with aluminum opposed to the copper?

  5. Hey all... :drink40:

    I was trying to find some info regarding battery bus bar's (aluminum &/or copper) on the site but was not able to (a link would help if any one knows of one) so I figured that I would just ask.

    I have 5 batteries (Kinetik HC 2400's) that are currently in series with 0awg wire but I see some people use these copper or aluminum bus bars to get more consistent charges/discharges but I am curious if this method is really worth the extra time, effort and money?

    I would appreciate any info to help me decide or any other suggestions that might be better than the daisy chain of wire.

    Thanks in advance... :drinks:

  6. Nope Not happening... Dont have enough posts

    This topic would have been fine had the OP not mentioned trading in the topic. WTB topics w/o 150 posts arent a problem, but once you make it a WTB and offer a trade in it with only 22 posts, there is a problem.

  7. Damn, you must have a Sundown dealer near you ?!!!

    Nice choice on woofers.:good::good::good:

    Could have looked into the SSA line (2010 Icon or Xcons).

    Waiting for some pics, now ! please!!!!

    I wish that there was a Sundown dealer near by but I lucked out... Had a friend that was getting out of the audio realm and heading in to racing, the system was in his truck for less than a week and played a TOTAL of 1 hour... and the price was just insane. :woot:
