dohckiller808 Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Posted May 21, 2011 at what point on voltage drop did you feel you should back off? Quote
blownengine Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 at what point on voltage drop did you feel you should back off? Would you take a 12 volt battery below 12 volts? No. So one would assume it is not good to take a 16 volt battery below 16 volts.

ALPINE408 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 if u have 2 ask dont run 16 volt i never asked i just did it! so if you have to ask dont do it?? hmmmm well you gotta start somewhere and getting info befor you start is not a bad idea im pretty sure you had to ask some one how to hook up an amp for your first time set gain ect. but if you had to ask you should not do it soooooooooo you would of never hooked up an amp or build a box cause you had to ask?

ALPINE408 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 i had 2 alts and never droped below 16 volts so never thought i had to back off lol Quote Have you ever had your woofers blown?
dohckiller808 Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Posted May 21, 2011 i dunno. i see guys pulling 10volt on 12 volt set ups all day. i know its not good. talking to some battery manufactures they say running the battery down like that is shortening the life of the battery but technically its ok on deep cycles. back on the 16v topic. i have a 01 sequoia so dual alts wont happen. i have a 300amp mechman in there now but i rely on battery bank due to no way in hell am i fitting another alt in there. im going to have to isolate and step down the voltage for the rest of mt 12 volt system. for that is why my concern is voltage drop.
