JPagan Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 for ring terminals, just order a bulk pack of them from darvex.
mr.p Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 The way you have it right now is not a proper ground/ it will not flow the amount of current your amplifier is drawing, the connection you have can and most likely will, GET HOT, ARC, if it is not a solid connection and you are not getting the proper surface area of contact it can easily melt the copper and cause a fire, or cause your amplifier to shut off due to low voltage, your amp WILL run hot and have problems with the connection you have currently. Not to mention you risk running grounding issues, and intermittent contact. DCAUDIO BALLS DEEP
mr.p Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 AND i forgot to mention its not just the point of contact that will have problems, the wire itself can get very hot as your voltage gets lower your trying to pull more current to get the same amount of power, your wire with a proper connection is only good for flowing X amount of current at X voltage, if you drop the voltage you now need to flow A TON more current. The wire can get very hot, the entire wire. If its a positive wire this could melt the casing and short it out. just a thought DCAUDIO BALLS DEEP
cracker Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 i cant find any 1/0 ring terminals in my local store's. where you live? i might have a couple laying around PM me if need be March 2010 SOTM winner my old buildhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/50219-dank-aka-crackers-bonne-new-v2-build-in-the-works-hahahaaaaaa/page__hl__crackers my youtube page - http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jackiedan04#g/u my feedback - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/56540-official-cracker-feedback/ i need tacos and bass to live!!!!! and will NEVER change hahaaaa TEAM NOIZE VIOLATION
LoudBimmer Posted December 31, 2009 Author Report Posted December 31, 2009 ok just bought new fuse (150A) and 2 stinger terminal rings)
LoudBimmer Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Posted January 15, 2010 made a new video today sundown sae-1200d old JBL300 click video's of DC on 2 different amps
LoudBimmer Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Posted January 18, 2010 well, today was a fucked up day for me. i re-run all my wire's , 0 gauge and my amp wire, made a hole little bigger and putted a plastic tube thru it, so wire wont touch metal. Moved my amp underseat in the back. But when i was mounting it to bottom, i ended up drilling a hole in AC line. So now i got no fucking AC, + i gotta get it repaired, which is probably around $200. Everything was going perfect, till that shit happened.
