basshead Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 isnt there a .2v loss or something like that when using an isolator???i dunno if this applies to a single alt setup or not but i was told by mr.iraggi himself NOT to use any isolators.

Guest MegaloManiac Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I think that is if you have just 1 battery, I'm not sure i'll look into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmanson Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 i heard the same thing about isolators also ...... voltage drop that is. anyways i'm thinking about doing a dual battery tray under the hood with two of those dual purpose yellowtops. 2-DC 15XLM2 D.7s 1-DC 5K amp (1) XS Power D6500(UNDERHOOD) and (1) XS3000(REAR) 3 runs 1/0ga for power and 2 runs of 1/0ga for negative. (2)-RFT165s components, ...... 4 separate 1 inch tweetersRF T600-2(fronts) Punch 450.4(rear) Audiocontrol 3.1.

hammerdown Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 the only time you will need an isolator is when you are running different batteries in the rear than the one upfront (ie... different brand name, different cranking and cold cranking amps) this this keeps one battery from over charging. but if they are all the same batteries then yes there is no need to run a isolator. I have been running Isolators for a while now and i don't have a complaint about them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyBoy Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 or you can use an isolator when you play your system while your car is off. that way you always have a charged battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
