Ninja_v1.0 Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 which will be better on an electrical system option A or option B Option A: 1 amp that is doing 4k at 1ohm Option B 2 amps at 2 ohms that is doing 4k ( each amp doing 2k at 2 ohm for a total of 4k) we are looking for which option will be easier on the electrical system Go! edit: your electrical systems is the following ALT: 200amps charging at 13v HOT BATTS: 4D3100'S When your at the top everyone is coming for you, friends, family, haters and even those who don't know you.. my advice..

JEFFYBOI Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Just was in the chat room listening to this. Running any amp @ a smaller load will be more efficient. Im going to keep it simple and say the 2 @ 2 ohm will be more efficient.

MrSkippyJ Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Ignoring efficiency it should be the same I think... But with efficiency the 2 amps should be at least a little more efficient. Assuming you are comparing similar amps.

I think! lol He asked which would be easier on the electrical system so i think that falls under efficiency. They both may put out the same but when you get down to the little fine details the 2 vs 1 will be running much smoother and more efficient.

Ninja_v1.0 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 correct not looking for same power but which one will be easier achieving that power since electrical is weak in the application.

Wicks Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Probably very similar for the fact that the 2ohm setup will be more efficient then the 1ohm setup, but the 2ohm setup has two separate power supplies which will have some redundancies and inefficiencies itself. But I'd venture to say the benefit of staying at 2ohms will be the most efficient. Are you going to test out the scenario to see which is correct???

will77530 Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 assuming you are clamping the exact same numbers, they should be identical for your charging system but the 2ohm would be easier on the amps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 maybe pick up these books and give them a read! http://www.ceautoelectricsupply.com/wiringbooks.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
