Broke_Audio_Addict Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Do you know how much voltage drop you are getting? Also I've seen multiple people say the eld bypass didn't work. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

bird333 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Do you know how much voltage drop you are getting? Also I've seen multiple people say the eld bypass didn't work. Mine is working. I didn't fully explain myself either. I would like to get the dimming to stop but also when I have the volume too high my 300/4 will cut out due to low voltage. I can play the system pretty loud but if I really crank it up I have the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguels Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 the 1 farad caps work. they dont have to be super caps.. on the test they used a regular cap and yield the best numbers here is the reason why lights dim... when the bass hits it takes a bit for the alternator to sense that voltage drop. by the time it puts out the amperage its too late. even high output alternators will have light dim. a cap works because it supplies a quick burst of power. a cap releases the energy faster than a battery thats why it helps my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 What is your voltage starting at and dropping to in numbers? saying it gets low doesn't help us help you.

Miguels Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 What is your voltage starting at and dropping to in numbers, saying it gets low doesn't help us help you. i will take a wild guess and say he didnt tune the gains correctly and is clipping the signal.. i had my stock alternator with a group 78 and 2 group 31 on a DC 5k and i had almost no drop. if i can find the video i will post it my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Think you need to realize, some cars lights dim even at mid 13v. Do you even have voltage monitoring when your are bassing?

Miguels Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 can also try adding relays on the headlights my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
