advantages and disadvantages to a capacitor


Recommended Posts

Would it be worth buying one bank of supercaps for a 5k?

Try 2 IMO

yea 2 per 5k would be better. 1 would help stabilize voltage though if you had electrical to support the 5k on its own. and do you well up into the 3/4 volume range

Stock, for now. Corner Load 10" maybe soon. But does 10s in the 1/4...

Snow don't you suggest a 100farad bank per 1k watts min?.

op, an alt and upgraded stock batt with 0gauge ofc might be all you need for that build. I'd go that route then add a second batt if dropping below 13v. If not then a 100+ cap bank could help stiffen up voltage at the amp.

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.

100-200 farads rule of thumb

I like to err on the higher side though

Just 3 group 31 batteries and 270 amp alt.

I don't put images in my signature to let people know I mean business.
