Tarball Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 i would do 2 runs ofc, 4-5kw is a lot of juice. dont forget that wire becomes more resistant with heat from the engine compartment. ANd, i wouldt run that much on a small stocker alt.

Kyblack76 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 What does amp draw have to do with runs front to rear?? Alaskan to me is correct. So you have a lot of draw, what you make, is determining factor.

alaskanzx5 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 exactly. just because the amps will pull a lot of power doesn't mean it will get it. just need to make sure your runs can handle what your alt can put out. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

alaskanzx5 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Straight from Rockford the t1500.1bdcp pulls an average of 100 amps. They asst going to update the info in their website to include the average power draw of the amps to by the way. Thanks to me asking them about the average that the t1500.1bdcp pulls and asking if they could provide that info for all their amps. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

ImaNoob Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Honestly i just got what you guys are saying... If the alt i get is 270amp and my wire can handle 300amps i should be fine with the single run, right ? I have rockford 0ofc im guessing its good wire. Ill keep you updated, hope to have my alt next week or so.. 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Xs3400 1500BDCP FI BL 12 3sq @ 32hz Rockford t675 T400.2 Stinger Deadner Build Log Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanzx5 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Yeah basically, the amps will try to pull the power they want but can only get what is available. Rockford ofc is good for 300 amps if I remember right. Just remember though that people with similar of amount of power has seen slightly better voltage full tilt with 2 runs. My thought in that is because with 2 runs you have more write to dissipate the heat cursed by the power draw making them mite efficient. Also Rockford recommends a 100 amp alt or bigger for the t1500.1bdcp. IMO if you car needs say 50 amps and you plan on running 2 t1500.1bdcp then you would need a 250 amp alt to support the car and amps needs. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.
