Miguels Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Shouldn't have said you was.. He don't need 300 though. A good quality 10 farad should be enough for the 1500. 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/

SnowDrifter Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Personally I wouldn't bother installing a 10 farad cap. As someone who runs caps in their own car I've found that 100-200 farads for every 100 amps of current draw is effective for a daily rig when coupled with adequate alternator power.Tony's test shows that caps help, there is no disputing that. However the caveat with that test is that it doesn't continue to measure voltage or output as it changes with time which is a consideration you need to have in a daily driver where you might play 2-3 songs back to back. The test Tony carried out and the one you posted is more akin to a roll-in burp scenario, not daily driving. ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444

mrd6 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 Lol gotta love it when people who have real knowledge and experience get told they are wrong by someone who apparently is an expert because they watched a video on YouTube. OP listen to Snows advice. My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL
Miguels Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 Dude. If you don't know either of the 2 tonys I wouldn't post. Any video they post you can't guarantee its true. It's not like they are not professionals. In fact they know more than anyone on here knows combined. To snow the only good caps are the Super caps and the pros have tested that it's not true. I did say I shouldn't said snow was wrong. My laptop is not working and by the time I got everything typed up he had posted some knowledge data. I thought snow was going to go like other old threads talking down on caps when in fact that got debunked. I never claimed I knew more or claimed to be a pro. I posted a video of 2 men that has forgotten more than you know And to add. No matter how many caps or batteries you have. If you don't have the alternator neither won't help. Regular caps, super caps or batteries. Alternator is what matters most 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/

Regular caps, super caps or batteries. Alternator is what matters most i agree on the fact that the alternator is what matters the most but do you think tony and tony are the only electrical engineers on here? granted they are both super smart dudes and have years of experience, but there a few other engineers on here that know a thing or two as well. black nasty, i believe snow, wicks, myself, just to name a few. i think the conclusion here was that both tony and tony were testing burst condiitons, snow and people such as myself like to daily our systems and sustainablity over a period of time is more important than burst power, thus more capacitance is needed as well as a stout alt to keep up.
