cichlidfort Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 If you're getting a cap because of the cool light display you're getting it for the wrong purpose. I have to admit it is a very cool toy to have but batteries are better.

ALPINE408 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 When dealing with a lot of voltage pull caps are no good I have lost db's every time ice installed one even a 20 faret cap hurt me bad with all the current and voltage I was pulling it would drain the cap in a second then my batt would have to charge the cap wile the amp was still trying to pull power that was low voltage to the max the 20 faret cap wouldn't even stop my lights from dimming Quote Have you ever had your woofers blown?

wL<3bass Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I would say HO alt, however caps do help, try the batcap 300 or 400 model they worked pretty well for me.
