Colin - STAPUFT Posted June 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Cool new developments, sir. I'm diggin' it. Thank you sir- Sweet build man Thank you. Very nice dude. Always love the old-school equipment. Battery box looks nice as well. I appreciate it. Hope to get some better pictures up soon. I need to do a proper video after everything is done and tidied up. Now that I am out of any and all room by the amps in the back, I need to begin work on the huge fiberglass vanity panel to cover up the wires and whatnot around everything. That will make the back look much more presentable. 12 - 12"s in the STAY PUFT 1989 Chevy Astro Build & Comment Log Un-Interrupted Build LogYouTube Channel Chevy Trailblazer 5.1 Dolby Digital DTS Install You have a beard of a mysterious sea captain.

Colin - STAPUFT Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 More pics of the same old stuff- just with battery box installed and power and ground wiring redone: These batteries are getting a bit up there in age, but let me tell you, they are strong! LOL Something like 62 lbs each. The system gets on up now. While running, I have not seen below 13.2 volts with these hooked up. Before if I pushed it hard, I would see 10.9 volts. The difference is like night and day. I know it isn't pretty, but it is safe. 5 runs of 4awg from the front of the van, each with an 80 amp fuse at each end. From there, they run into 3 250 amp circuit breakers. Those circuit breakers are between the amps and everything else. Each of the 3 250 amp circuit breakers gets one run of 4awg from the secondary battery bank. The battery bank can be isolated from the front battery and from the rear amps by another 300 amp circuit breaker. ...I know, 3 runs of 4awg for the entire battery bank? Yes. This isn't a competition vehicle and I am not chasing that 0.1 db. It works like a champ for what it is. ....I SHOULD have designed room for a battery bank in the very back when I began the build, but oh well. Front battery is lead acid (floats at 12.5 volts) and rear batteries are AGM (float at 12.6 volts). Yet another reason to be able to easily isolate them from one another for when the van sits for long periods of time. I do have a Battery Tender that will hold all three at 13.2 ish though. Clearances between battery box and the subs and middle seat. Yep- pretty sure I am out of room. I also re-wired my 8"s in the doors into an active xover along with the MTX 5000 silk dome tweets. 200 watts RMS on that component set. Oh my- it woke those up too. I adjusted my xover points on the head unit and turned off ALL time alignment. I don't think this thing has ever sounded so good. Now: if I can pretty things up and leave crap alone, all will be well with the world. lolThanks for checking in guys. 12 - 12"s in the STAY PUFT 1989 Chevy Astro Build & Comment Log Un-Interrupted Build LogYouTube Channel Chevy Trailblazer 5.1 Dolby Digital DTS Install You have a beard of a mysterious sea captain.

I guess I've gotten used to it, but I looked up on the monitor once posting the pic and was like... "woah. That's a butt ton of equipment" Woot!!! really need to meet up again. I know brother. I keep on hearing we are gonna do another meet up, but then it comes and goes with nothing.
