x91evo Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 Please excuse me if this had been covered already,But besides Power XS's D1400What other 14V batteries are avaliable?I cannot for the life of me find anything else,I think I am being forced to downgrade my charging because of the price of the D1400s.Any thoughts/ideas are appreciated!
SnowDrifter Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 I've only been able to find the d1400s too. XS makes a good battery, but I definitely feel you on the price. You could make your own by getting an 8v and a 6v battery and wiring them in series. Or a bunch of 2 volt batteries. I'm not sure how much you'd gain from a price/performance ratio though ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
Leo1103 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 Mixing batteries of different voltages can be and is (at least I think) very dangerous. You'd be better off with wiring some 2 volts in series or just biting the cost of the xs1400's. Is there a reason your set on a 14v system? 2002 Honda CR-VAlpine 9887My BuildRebuilding...

x91evo Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Posted March 28, 2013 Thats a good idea, but at the same time it would probably be easier just to downgrade haha.All my 14V setup has done for me has caused problems for finding an affordable amp for lows, mids, and highs.Wish I had more to put into it though. 16.5 charging deff makes life easy with the lows.Edit: these forums are weird haBut originally it was for my mojo, now not so much. Thinking its going to be less future headache to downgrade to 12V
Leo1103 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 yea I'd just do a 12v system, you can always do a 14v or 16v system in the future when you have more money for audio! 2002 Honda CR-VAlpine 9887My BuildRebuilding...

Tarball Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 stick with 12v if the cost of a battery is an issue. there are other costs to consider that you probably havent.
