Team Maf Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Where do yall have your voltage gauge wired into? I heard some would connect to view off their front battery, then some had theirs wired to their battery bank. I personally had mine wired on the battery before my amp. Whats the best place to accurately keep track of voltage? does it matter?

EricR Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I personally like to know what my voltage is AT the amp so thats where I have mine wired to Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

Somewhere close to the amp would be ideal, so a battery in the trunk next to the amp would be fine, also if you can use a DMM to adjust the voltage gauge to get the most accurate reading.

Blazerbass Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 im also wondering this since i just bought a volt meter. if you have a second battery you'd think you would connect it there, but hopefully someone lets us know hah Quote http://www.secondskinaudio.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogers Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 yep either put it on the battery closest to the amp or directly into the amps battery+ terminal...

kl0wn Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 My back battery and front battery always read the same thing at full tilt. So I saved the wire and just wired the volt gauge to the front battery.
