Recommended Posts

Posted

Optimas die if u don't use ur car every day..xs use new lead(gotta protect the earth)...and stinger fall apart in a year..I had all these and kinetik will last u 3-5 years...

I have had my optima for 5 or 6 years now. My dad even drained it to 7 volts when I was out of town for a month, he turned on my amps and didn't know...

my cousin has an optima for 3 years and counting, and switched it between like 5 cars in those 3 yrs, so im guessing their very good, one cost like $1,200 here though... ill just add the capacitor its only like 200 bucks

Relax ladies!!! I have (2) hifonics bxi2010d..(2) 18" fi btl n1...(1) iraggi 300 amp alt...(2) kinetik 2400w batteries....and not a single capacitor...they are for broke idiots who only want their system to look good and bright and don't give a shit about thief cars

Lol Meade's civic had 2 in it and im sure he's not a broke idiot.

And I was unaware the n1s were out yet.

Caps are fine for anything espcially under 3000 watts, im running a fosgate p400.4 and p1000.1, i know i have a bad cell im my battery but its actually STARTING my car right now, until i have enough money for a yellow top.

not sure how the amount of power you are running has anything to do with a cap. Caps are great at filling in ripples in voltage and current in a charging system that has enough current to keep up with the demands of your system. Caps do not help an already struggling charging system, though they usually don't hurt it much either.

I "think" the rule to go by is 1 farad for every 1000watts. It is a general rule and I am not sure how correct it is. Most people don't need one or won't see any great benefit from one.
