  1. Battery or Capacitor?

    in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.

    Battery, a capacitator will strain your electrical system. A capacitators give a first time a quick support to your electrical system, but from than your system have to fill the capacitator up again and agian and again, it hurts more than i works good. Capacitators was an idea of the past in caraudio.

    But other question, did you have done the Big 3 upgrade? The "one" of easy/cheaper upgrades for the electrical system.

    Once the vehicle is running, the battery also becomes a load on the alternator.

    There is no real "fix" without buying an after market alt. Batterys will help UNTIL THEY DIE. If your alt doesnt have enough to rechage them then they arent really doing anything.... :nea:

    again, no substitute for a stronger alternator.. But a second battery is waaaay better than any capacitor I've come across...

    One thing you guys seem to be overlooking > genetics !

    Some guys just get big and ripped, easier than others. Granted, hard, consistent workouts, great diet, and plenty of rest goes a long ways..... But beyond that, some guys are born with it, and some are not.

    Does anybody here believe they could be as big as my body building idol Zack King Kahn, by eating right, getting plenty of rest, and working out as hard / smart as humanly possible.... even in 15 years ? EVEN taking tons of steroids ?

    I honestly don't think so. Personally, I believe that maybe 1 guy in 10's of millions, even has the genetic potential to get this huge, regardless of all else....

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    But hey, on the body building note, I've been working out as hard as this semi-worn out, old white guy possibly could, for 1 year now, and eating like a freak, for almost 2 years. I often look in the mirror and wonder, "WTF I'm not getting big, and ripped" ? But I think a lot of that is because I see myself so often. Then, sometimes I look back at my obese, super high BP, super high cholesterol arse, 2 years ago, and "THIS" is what I'm proud of. Not about where I'm at, but where I've come from.

    As I have said several X's lately > It took me 2 years just to climb out of a very deep hole. Only now can I start thinking about getting big / ripped. But just give me 3 more years ;)

    PS, One of the replies on Youtube said, "It looks like Fish has been eating some roids"..... Ha ! :) I was so flattered ! :) I don't know what that guys sees, that I don't.... But I sure look forward to the time when I get big enough that everybody is questioning that !

    My obese arse 2 years ago:

    And I have to say this again....

    Losing 100 lbs of fat, easy as could possibly be. Calories in, vs calories out. It's really that simply.

    Gaining 30 or 50 lbs of lean muscle mass.... toughest thing I've ever tried to accomplish. Blood, sweat, and tears. {I've actually gained about 28 lbs of muscle in this last year. Hoping for 25 lbs more, in the next 3 years}

    Peace,

    Fish

    No homo, but looking good man.. I hit 228lbs mid last year... I am currently in the 185-192 range because I am having a hard time concentrating with my exercise like I originally was doing.. But kudos to you for doing so... That is a drastic change!!!

  14. how to hook up an extra battery?

    in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring

    Posted

    yea, im doing the big 3 aswell, so ill skip the negative run and just ground it in the back somewere i can find. now would i need to hook up a power wire from the front batt to the alt? or no?!

    thanks for the help guys, for real :)

    The positive wire? If so, that would be part of your BIG 3 setup... Yes

    If you mean negative to alternator case, some do some don't... some cannot find it... Like me... :peepwall:
