jrchevy87 Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I wouldn't waste my time on using a capacitor on a 12volt battery system ... Hell, I wouldn't even use one of those to use as my boat anchor, might contaminate the water ... could you give any specifics to this, im not trying to be that asshole but i hate when ppl come into a thread and say something when they have no scientific basis on their opinions Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Wow, I never really though of it like that. OP, I now a damn lot about computers to, and using them as an example really brought to life how your idea was working. I'm tuned into this topic!

You have a good day Sir ... ok were talking about the idea of a capacitor in theory and with the information we have its plausible but i havent seen anything that suggests a capacitor will hurt anything, if such information exists i would like to hear it. yes batteries are good and with todays technology they can have more power drawn from them faster than ever before but you will almost always see some kind of voltage drop(whether it be .1 or .5), what we are discussing is the prevention of voltage drop altogether and ways to accomplish this backed with scientific facts and real world experience. saying that you will never use one and that your batteries have lasted 4 years does nothing to further this conversation. im not trying to be an asshole but you got that ball rolling on your first post in this conversation and i would sincerely like to hear your reasoning for ur opinion on capacitors Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RooTxBeeR Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 ^^^ That was kind of useless information, and if you have useful info, say it. Also, he never said to replace batteries with caps, just add a fairly large cap with your current set up Edit: Sanfu knows what the fuck hes doing On 11/20/2012 at 8:54 PM, AMI CUSTOMS said: Turned mine up today at a light, guy next to me his steering wheel started moving and he looked over at me like I was a magician lol.
