IndianaBassHead Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I guess i will try to run the a/c back there but I'm honestly not sure how to do it or how it will turn out. The thing I'm worried about is during the summer it's already going to be hot in the back plus the heat the amp puts off. That's why I'm so worried about it.

memphisBred Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 It'll get warm and even get hot on the extreme heat of the summer, but shouldn't get too hot as to damage the amp or go into protect. During all other seasons I doubt it'll get real warm depending on where you live and the weather.

IndianaBassHead Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 so you think it'll be ok to just leave it in there with no fan? or should I add fans? also, I am going to put 2% tint on the rear hatch so that should help some.

Bigsix Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 the easiest way to power the fans that ive seen is simply tap into the amps remote Uh...NO. Not what thats for. dont give advice if you dont know what you talkin 'bout Willis! Use the remote to trip a relay, to turn them on when amps come on, but not to directly power the fans. Thats no bueno. Power the fans from the battery bank he will have right there.

IndianaBassHead Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 ok, i would definitely use a battery to power it anyway. But everyone thinks I'll be ok with just fans back there, and not running a/c to the back? It will be completely sealed off.

HatersGonnaHate Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) Do this, 4 on each side pulling air across the amp, Berger did this on both of my cactus 12ks ^^^ Do that. Don't do the A/C idea. A/C has moisture in the air and it will condensate on your amps and most likely blow them or throw them into protect.

Not to be a dick, but you did give advice on something you dont know about. You suggested he use the remote wire to power the fans, not a good idea.. That statement indicates you dont know what you are talking about. Hence dont suggest it. Theres more to electricity than the voltage slick. Have to account for things like amps drawn, by what is being powered etc. etc..
