Doylerules826 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 So I got my volt meter today, and I am reading about 13.3 driving around and dip to about 12.5 when at a stop light. Is this an ok voltage for the time being until i get a bigger alt? or is this something i should be worried about? Quote 2000 chevy blazer Avic n1
kl0wn Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 All depends how long before you upgrade your alt, if it is going to be a while, I would turn the gain down on your amp so you don't drop that much Quote 06 Mini Cooper S Sundown, SoundQubed Cadence, XS Power 151s Sealed 155s Outlaw Windshield @ 37hz

OldsBoomer Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 ^^ agreed and did you check your voltage with a DMM because when i got my voltage guage it wasn't set properly so i had to adjust the sensitivity Quote Suburban Coming Soon
skittlesRgood Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 i would be careful. but i have the same voltage drop. you should turn it down at lights anyways so you dont piss people off and get audio banned. then with demos just keep it reved at 2k rpm Quote If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude.

MECHMAN Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 Time for a large case alternator. A good unit will keep you above 14 volts Quote 1-888-MECHMAN www.Mechman.com [email protected]
