  1. Easiest solution would be a good quality DC-DC converter.

    It would be nice to know the current draw, otherwise 10A is a safe value to use.

    Some voltmeters can measure current without the need for a clamp meter too.

    If you're going to drop another $80-100 on a voltage boost module, you could just get another 12V actuator too.

    Yeah exactly what I was thinking with that amount might as well just get another actuator that will b faster.

  2. Ok I found something that will work for the op. Check out this link, it is exactly what you need. http://www.solidapol...ransformer.html

    yeah ur right this is exactly what i need....but too much money for my taste....but if thats what its gonna take i guess im gonna have to save....you guys think its worth the money???

    Please don't take this the wrong way, but if you are spending all that money on quality audio equipment and are going the extra mile of making a motorized amp rack, what's another 100 bucks to do the job right?

    I understand. But like u said. "on quality audio equipment" and budget is tight. I've built my car over about 1-2 years time so it wasn't all at once. I dont have $100 to spend on something that will make my amp move a little bit faster. Sorry,., I wish I did though! Haha

  4. You won't be able to hook up two 12v batteries in series and have them charge off your regular charging system with out doing an isolater/solenoid system that cuts the batteries out of the main system when they are being used. Then goes back to a 12v battery bank for when charging. In my other hobby, high power CB radio we have things called "motor maul's" which allow us to run big amplifers by using 4-8 large 12v batteries that charge off the main charging system but then when you key the microphone a solenoid switches the charge feed off and runs the batteries in series allowing us to use anywhere from 12-24 volts on the battery bank.

    Oooooo more info please!

  5. If you have a clamp meter for DC amps, hook two batteries in series, hook the actuator up, and measure it while it's working. And make sure they're hooked up to whatever they're moving, because I BELIEVE they use more amps depending on how much physical resistance there is. Then you'll know how many amps the converter would need to put out.

    Or you can just keep 2 batts in series, disconnected from the rest of the car's electrical, and just charge them separately as needed.

    sadly no i dont have one. yeah like i said charge em seperatly

  6. i dunno how it would affect drop, but i also dont know if that would back feed into the system somehow.

    this is very true also. best off to just have the batts not connected to system and connect them seperatly to a small batt charger to the DC to AC converter i have installed. that would work right?? and just get a volt meter to c when i need to charge it?

  7. get two smaller batteries and link them to create a dedicated 24 volt system?. i dunno maybie you could get a stepup transformer or something

    yeah i was thinking the same thing. but then that would cause me more voltage drop...cuz right now im passed border line with my alt. cuz i have an SAZ-3500 and a small 300 watt amp for mids. and 2 batts. on a DC Power OEM series 190 amp. wouldnt that affect my voltage and force the alt more to charge 2 more batts??

  8. i know this might not be the correct area to be posting this but it seemed like the closest one to the subject haha. anyways. i just got 2 actuators that run on 24 Vlt DC power. but i do not have such power source. i do have 2 batteries in the truck but they put out 12 Vlt together for the sound system. the actuators do function on just 12 Volts but the are SUPER SLOW!! so i was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what i could do to get 24 volts without touching the batts. Are there any kinds of converters?? please let me know! thanks!

  9. You have fs in the title right? In the for sa.less section here right? See where this is going?

    They r my brothers rims that lives in Miami. I have a hard time communicating with him. He doesn't know how to

    Post up any of this stuff. And I took these pics when I was down there for ebay. Sooooo it's gonna b kinda difficult for me to do so....I just want to have this as an add for my eBay posting. No deal making or anything through SMD. If anyone wants to make deals I just give them my phone number.

  10. This is really impressing i still can't believe the amount of patience that you have Josh. Great work bro and keep it up. And i hope all goes well in your future, I read somewhere you would like to open a shop with your Dad some day. Hope that happens for you Kuz deff the talent and worksmanship is there.

    Thanks man I really appreciate it compliments man! Thanks man I hope so too. Thanks man I highly appreciate this!
