tech guru please help,

nag ddrop po yung voltage ng capacitor ko ng 12 volts, when i tuned my volume to 20.. i'm using a mass engineering 20 farad, 20 volts.
my set up was kicker s10l7 dvc 2 ohm, kicker zr360 amp, soundstream 4 channel amp for seps, audison x-over, kicx seps 4 pc. & rf mids & rf coax.  :notworthy:

How are you running 20 volts in your system? Diba 14.4 volts maximum lang ang car audio components?

yup 14.4 volts ang usual voltage talagang babagsak yan sa 12v or mas mababa pa...malakas kasi humigop ng kuryente yang amps mu...pero sure thing malakas yang amp na yan...usual naman nag drodrop mga voltage pagnagpapabayu... lalu na stock battery and alternator ka. imho

sir try mo yung "big three" grounding points and main cable from Alt to Batt.. :) sure thing malaking bagay po yun :)

ganun po ba!?, di po ba kaya ng stable sya ng 14.4V or kahit mga 13.8V!?

Stock battery lang po gamit ko, yup! 14.4 volts lang po talaga max for car audio. i just want a stable 14.4 volts sana!?

afaik, 14.4v ang system if malamig pa yung alternator, pero once umitin na sya, voltage will be regulated at 13.8v. pag magpapabayo kasi sir sudden pull of energy from the batt yun kaya nagddrop voltage. mahirap attain yung gusto mo na hindi nag ddrop hehe like:

changing alternator
adding lots of grounding wires
adding several batts and capacitors, etc

--

about sa big three, try to search for it kahit sa google. big three grounding system for cars..

for overview, those are the 1.wire from body to batt negative. 2.wire from body to engine block. 3.wire from alternator to battery positive. use 2ga. wires, or 0ga if budget permits :)

voltage Stablizer combi with Grounding kits will help.

wow dami pala kelangan i consider kala ko capacitor lang will do na

rein

sir good grounding po will provide good charging for batts and caps :)

ganyan din akin dati.. pero nagpalit ako ng 90amp na alternator mas ok na ngaun.. :)

thanks for the feed back mga sirs, ma-try nga. :notworthy:

use bigger wires when doing big three. 2awg or 1awg

pwede mo rin DIY ang grounding points
