Darksideofsound Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Has anyone ever ran the 16v Kinetik under their hood with the 12v to the car and the 16v post to the other batteries in the back if so pease let me know how well it workd from what I know, your not supposed to do that, they say to switch between the 12v and 16v side...if you put the 16v side to your amps....what will run your car? it doesn't sound like you have another batt to run your car....how are you charging the 16v side to? EDIT. you have the 16v side running to other batts??? now I might be mistaken, but I dont think thats a good idea...I will look into it, but I think thats a no no.

sound xtreme Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I too heard the same thing. I have to contact Kinetik to ask same question. I also heard though, that if you connect the 12V post to the 12V post of the bank of batteries, that you should be okay. 1997 Astro front:6 sets of T3 componets Subs: 8 level 5 18"s (building 6th order BP) Amps: 4 really big ones (totalling just shy of 50K) Batts: Alt: Ohio Generator 1996 Chevy Suburban Sub amp: A fifth really big amp Subwoofer: 2-15" DC Level 4 XL Batts: C&D high rate--(x4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my 2 alts ....these batterys have to be charged with 18.6 or more ...right know i have 11 in my truck ....and yes you use both sides @ the same time <its a must >meaning you have to tie all the 12 volts together also ...

CXT15s Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Thanks for the info guys, I have 2 19v alts from powermaster and I didnt wanna have to run two right at the moment. And I wanted to run one 16v kinetik under the hood and 5 powermaster 16v batts in the back. So I wanted to run the 12v side to my car and the 16v post to the batts in the back. I have the all six batts just wated to make sure I would be able to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
