New batts AT LAST!!!!!!!!


Had a single stinger spp1200 on front and some old ass northstar 110ft on the back, now, i installed an stinger spp1700 on front and got 6 extra spp 1200s for the back along with the one i already had, giving me a total of 8 batteries for the moment, 7 extra batts are coming on the way also :)

Test fitting them to see i can place them that way when i get the other 7 batts, in the meantime, they will be mounted on the regular position facing up :)

I know almost no one cares about this topic, but i have some free time right now and pics on the phone that i wanna delete so i´ll post them here before doing it lol

I´ve only done a couple of things lately on the sexplorer, but they definitely helped TONS , if you go a few pages back you´ll see how i sealed off the wall from the back, i had some gorilla tape on the back and spanding foam on front of it, worked nicely for how cheap and fast was, but it was time to add some fiberglass on the back of the trim panels and also between roof and top panel.

Then, i started playing with roundover AGAIN!!!! tried all kind of different options, didn´t get pics of everything but here´s what i have...

External roundover via 3" PVC tubes cutted on half and internal 1" roundover got the best results on this application, gained 0.2 dbs lol, at least is something!

Then, i changed the CCA wires coming from the batts to the amplifier, they were OLD as hell and abused also, upgraded to some welding 1/0

A gain is a gain! 158 is no joke.

I'm always checking back in here waititng for you to get that 60, keep it up!

thanks a lot man! yes a gain is a gain, i barely gained anything with the roundovers, the upgraded wires and the back and sealing everything with fiberglass it´s a whole different thing, wanna take a guess on the new score???? still single 12K wired at 1 ohm :)

Not bad for a daily box on a single amplifier wired at 1 ohm!!!! still lot of work ahead, need to reinforce the roof ASAP, haven´t worked on the floor or dash either, need to add the 4 extra ofc runs since i only have 2 cca runs right now, after all that, i will double the power via 4 stetsom 6k amplifiers wired at 1 ohm a piece, 60s here we go :)
