caps are crap. spend an extra $75 and get an optima yellow top.

also your battery shouldn't die if your car is running. caps are there to store extra watts when your bass hits dem low notes. that link is pretty much usless cause it just tells you when your battery is going to die when your car is off.

get a cap, I would suggest 1 farad for every 500 watts, but you can stretch to 1 farad for 1000 watts, depending on the draw of the amp. I would get a cap and an optima, that's the setup I have 3 farad cap, and an optima yellow top.

Shyt I must have been off the yels-a-bobs when I wrote that... the car was turned off when the battery dies

what about a batcap? ever try one of those? battery and a cap in one unit

Batcap & alumapro C.A.P are the same except some people prefer the alumapro, but ya I would buy a batcap or alumapro cap before a stiffening cap.
