Max1636 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Just curious as I'm currently upgrading my electrical. I'd consider the 12k to be up there with some of the much bigger amps out there which I'm sure most will agree on. Could I run a 12k with this electrical: Dual 225 Amp Alternators 2 x 1300 CCA 200aH Delkor 8D-1300 1 x Optima YellowTop 750 CCA 55aH I get that the electrical may be so poor for this amp that this post may seem like a joke. But I'd genuinely like to know, Thanks.

Watch the bass Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 1 Burp or joke. This amp can draw 1200 amp´s current. Here you can see what a big special batt does if you throw 500 amps current on them, enjoy.

Before we can give a good answer we would have to know how many mids and high amps you are planning on running and work with it from there. Honestly from my opinion considering a Dc 12k is underrated i would say with your current electrical system it would be enough to turn it on and (Maybe) run it on low power. The lower the ohm load depends on it aswell. I'd say you could probably throw 2 more of those batteries on it (4 total plus optima) and you would be perfectly fine. Again this information is just from what ive seen, somebody will probably chime in thats ran one before or currently runs one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Make your total of batteries in the back 4-6 and you should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
