you can get step up transformers cheap on ebay.
The ones I saw were small and very cheap looking. Plus they are coming from China and take almost a month to get here. With a decent transformer he will be able to expand on his amp rack in the future if he wishes.
Expand u say???

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

We used to use doorbell transformers for 24v power supplys. They are cheap and work well in electronics. That was powered with ac though so nevermind.
Damn...hahaha

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!

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
-
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?
-
and i dont wanna spend more than $60 but i will go $70 MAX if not ill just deal with the speed.
-
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??

Actuator specs:

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!

Hey guys I was wondering if any knows where I can send or take my plexi piece to engrave a bunch of brands onto it to use in my car. Does anyone know how much it would cost to fill a most of the blank on the plexi with about 8 brand engravings on a piece about 24"x7"?
Thanks!

Dude just pure amazing! Love it. U did great blending the doors in! U do great upholstery also! Just pure awesome! Keep it up man!

why not be smart and just posted it on the hot deals section, but it seems like you are not able to comply with the fs rules, so I think the mods will end up locking up this thread
Nice rims though btw
well im sorry! ive never sold anything on SMD! i just wanted the listing to be seen by more people, to have a higher chance of selling on ebay. thats all i wanted.
-
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.
-
if you are selling them here it needs name and date on them
Even though I'm really selling them on eBay? Cuz the only way I selling them is if bought through eBay no where else
-
What would shipping be ?
$250

Let us know when you'd like to come back again! Hope you and your Dad have a safe trip.
Thanks man I really appreciate it!
And I deff will let u guys know when that will b exactly! Thanks!
need help converting 12 Vlt to 24 Vlt for faster Actuator! help!

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