CJ18 Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Nathan can you please explain if and how the Amp Hour rating effects batteries in an audio system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMI CUSTOMS Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) They don't AH rating are done at low amperage, 1-5 amps pull depending on battery size, so in car audio it means NOTHING!!!!

Nathan @ XSpower Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 As said above the AH rating is useless for car audio applications. It is a LOW amperage pull for EXTENDED (hours) periods of time. Car audio demands HIGH amperage pulls for SHORT periods of time with the ability to recover quickly. You need a battery with HIGH instantaneous power output that is designed for quick recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks for the answers!!! That is what I thought I just wanted to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan @ XSpower Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks for the answers!!! That is what I thought I just wanted to be sure. If you want to choose a battery to power a 5amp fog light for 24 hours to show off your system, then I guess AH is important in car audio.............lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I was thinking just neons and maybe a few LEDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
