SlappinM30 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I am looking to see if anyone in the Salinas Calf. area has a DC amp clamp. I would really like to find out what the output of my amp is. It is a T1500-1bd running a Beyond Audio Inhuman 15 at 1.4 ohm at 15 volts on it's own Alt and GNB Sprinter Batts, with duel runs of 4 Ga. wire. Thanks for any help you guys can give.

fr34kout Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Just use a DMM Orly? A DMM to clamp output on an amp? So what are you going to do, find voltage and take a guess at your amperage? Pretend rise doesn't exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMI CUSTOMS Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 You will still need a clamp, but an AC current clamp.

SlappinM30 Posted October 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Ummm, an amps output terminals put out A/C voltage, Not Dc... You will still need a clamp, but an AC current clamp. I thought that you put an DC amp clamp on the + side for the imputing DC current and a volt meter on the same input +&- to watch voltage then multiplied the two to get output wattage? I am I wrong if so please share with me the right way to get my amps wattage output.

kandiman71874 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Dmm on the + and - speaker wires set to a/c voltage, amp clamp around the + wires set to a/c amperage. multiply your numbers and there ya go Amperage a/c x Voltage A/C = A/c Wattage. or as the slogan says, A ac x V Ac= MWSPL. those of us that compete in midwest spl are kind of used to this shit. The majority of the classes are based on woofer size and wattage limitations per class.
