oldschool Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 (edited) Me and a co-worker had an argument today. He says it is no rsik of damage to an amp if you leaved it hooked to an extra battery while charging the battery. I would think that this would be bad. Am I wrong? As long as the amp is off there is no problem at all I have always left them hooked up and I have never blown 1 and I have been doing. This for 16 years.

-Hobby- Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I have charged my batteries a few times with everything hooked up. Car was off while charging. I wouldn't charge the batteries with the cars accessories on or the car running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlo Stanfield Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 99.9% of the time it doesnt matter...When I had 36 American Bass VFL150.1's in my Cadillac I blew a couple up. (The gold amps) I was scratching my head and finally figure the problem out... That particular amp will NOT handle any voltage over 17.or so.. When I had my charger on and it went over 18 volts i popped some amps. I charged the batts up to 20.8 all nite long with the amps off and had absolutely no problems. It only happened when the amps were on and the voltage was higher than the mid 17's. I had 16 volt batteries by the way. But in your case.... your charging 12 volt batteries so there is little if no worry about the amps. The gold case VFL150.1s IMO are some of the best amps ever made... I've own 4 of them and still kept 2 because of how much I loved them. I literally beat the shit out of them and they still kept running like they were BNIB. I've burped them as low as .25ohms and they made some monster #s on 12v, when they were on 16v it was just insane to say the least. Quote 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer... New setup, old ride...

I was mad when Bob decided to not go with that company anymore. The only thing I didnt like about those amps where them blowing up as soon as you past 18 volts. Other than that they were the best amp he ever had.... IMO. I still have 2 or 3 of them laying around.. It was extremely hard to give the 36 of them I had back to bob when I was done competing with the. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
