C-Fizzy Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) Hi everybody! (dr. nick voice) Ok long story short, i'm running an 8O amp stock alt, stock front batt, and 2 kinetik HC2000's in the back. Being powered by them is an SAZ-1500D @ 1ohm. I've always had good voltage at idle, 14.1 - 14.4, but lately, my voltage has been around 13.5, and when i run full tilt, i drop to 12.6. And when i bring up the rpm's, my voltage doesnt change. I went into autozone today to get a load test put on my alt, but they refused because it was raining Anyway, got home, left the car running, and took off the "+" terminal on my battery, and the car still ran. So my alt isn't dead, atleast not yet. Can anyone think why my voltage is so shitty?

Red-navi-916 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 u have low voltage cuz loud systems are not for fhegs nah buut... it could be your volt meter take your multi meter and turn your system up and put it on your front battery and then to the back ones and then on the amp u get what im saying?

CaptainzPlanetz Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Please dont do that last part again, it could damage the alt with only itself hooked up running the car, that was a way to test the alt on like older older cars, but with newer cars is not good.

Wasn't aware, but i'll be purchasing a H/O alt anyway. Thanks for that bit of info.

Red-navi-916 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 now that think about it it probably is your volt meter.. your car should be sitting at 14v at idle no matter what, since you did take the volt meter out of its case maybe the bass rattled the little adjuster down so instead of you looking at 14.4 ur looking at 12.6 Quote BUILDLOG http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=61862 "98crewcab"Never a POS....just always "a work in progress" lol that's how we roll bitches!!!

dugee81 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 do you ever have your batteries trickle charge? Quote 200a alt. by Excessive Amperage hc800 under hood & 2 Deka 9a31 in rear 1/0awg + big 3 SAZ 3000D HDC3 18" @ 2 ohm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Fizzy Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 do you ever have your batteries trickle charge? Nope. But my front batt is reading 12.3 and my rear batts are reading 12.5 Thats decent, correct?
