Kyblack76 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Ohms law calc on my phone. Just plugged random numbers in but here it goes 2500 watts @ 1 ohm = 50 amps 2500 watts @ 2 ohm = 35 amps Less current means less heat. Of course higher impedance would be more eff, but it ISNT HIGHER strapped 2ohm would be 1ohm.. its the same SMD SUPER SELLER The Burban Build Blazer Build sold Acura trunk build sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meade916 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 He never said they will make more power, but be different in HOW they make power. Unless I am misunderstanding his post. Will AD1 tell ouput voltage and current peaks? that would be badass and put an end to this thread for sure. i don't have 2 of the same amps that are strappable other then my T4k's. And i don't have the power supply to bench 1 T4k, let alone 2. I would have to run some zero gauge over to my truck to do that and i MIGHT......but if i do, it will be for 1 amp, not 2. I am not planning on hooking up 4 runs of 1/0 directly to my alternators, that have NO room on any terminals anyway. I will prob try to squeeze ONE run on there and do some larger amps but 2 will be hard. I might be able to do 2 smaller amps (on my battery bank/bench), like T1000 bd's, but i don't have 2 of those.... so yes, that would be a great test! but the AD-1 is highly dependent on the power supply you give the amps and i am limited to how much power i can test on my battery bank. I need to just knuckle up and get 50 D1400 batteries and make a REAL bench. 3 just isn't enough.

CortezDTV Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Exactly what I had said from the beginning 2 amps strapped at .5. .25 each 2 amps gain matched at .25 each. Same thing 2 amps at strapped at 2 ohms. (1 ohm each ) 2 amps gain matched at 1 ohm.

Good point, and there are not a ton of small power output amps that are strappable....maybe Skar can do a test with their amp...they're strappable iirc. 50 d1400s....weigh a ton literally lol...but that would be able to support some high powered stuff for sure. I'm definitely in to see some strapped and unstrapped amps tested though.

CJ18 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 I might be way off here, but this is what makes sense to me. If strapping amps makes them more efficient, then they should make more power because they are not drawing as much current from your electrical which should in turn give you a higher voltage at the amp that should give you more power.

rocking.that.eclipse Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 AMI IS NOT CONCERNED WITH THE POWER. HE IS SAYING THE CURRENT IS NOT THE LESS WHEN THEY ARE STRAPPED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
