teamSPB Posted December 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Another update for you all.... Went up to Milton Keynes to pick up my batteries as they arrived with Blade Ice (UK distributor for XS Power) this morning... As said previously in the thread, we have decided to go for XS Power batteries as IMO, they are the best! Ive tried a good few battery combinations/brands out there, and these honestly surpass my expectations by FAR! You only have to look at the Blade Ice Chevy, Steve Meades Tahoe, Tommy KOB, Frankie etc etc etc, some of the worlds LOUDEST vehicles, which are ALL no budget builds...these guys could have used ANY batteries out there...but they chose XS Power...must be a reason hey We cant all be daft Some details of the charging system.... There are 3 210a which we are trying to graft onto the Previa...ill definately add more if we think we can get them on there with relatively little work These alts will be charging at 16.0-16.9v's We have a XS Power step down module to bring the voltage down from 16, to around 14.8-14.9v constant which will be available to the entire vehicle and headunit/processors/lighting and midrange amps. There will be a BigYellow battery that the module will 'charging' which the rest of the vehicle will be powered off There are 4 runs of 0g + and 2 runs of 0g - running from front to back to send the charge of the alts to the rear batteries The full 16+ volts from the alts charging the rear battery bank will be running all the bass amps which we have been assured will be fine to around 16.5-16.9v Should we need more cable runs from front to back, we can easily add to them as there is PLENTY of room beneath the vehicle The rear batteries will be 10 XS Power D1400's to start off with...depending on how the system copes, we plan to add more alts/batteries in the future! As said, the batteries are the XS Power D1400's...10 of them to be precise...the specs are D1400 Weight Lbs. - 43.56 Weight Kgs. - 19.75 Length - 10.24 in Height - 7.20 in Width - 6.65 in MAX Amps - 2400 Ah - 50 So in total, we have 24000 amps and 500Ah in battery power for now, and over 630a in charging power from the alts....it might sound like its no where near enough...but as voltage increases, current draw decreases for the same power On with some pics me thinks! Standard ride height on the passionwagon lol! With the batteries Heres what was causing that boat like drop! Opening a box Thought it would be nice to see what the batteries floated at...but I could only be bothered to check one and wait until I installed the rest to check them LOL!

Nathan @ XSpower Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Get it all in there and let the big dogs eat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamSPB Posted December 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Get it all in there and let the big dogs eat! Hopefully will be offering up the batteries tomorrow! Need to make sure the air ride will cope with the extra weight in as it runs at 140psi on the rears as it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
