    capacitors are connected to amplifiers. HUs need very little current.

    Basically, the capacitor eliminates the transient voltage DIP (undervoltage) when high powered amps are being used. Voltage DIP is caused by resistance within the wires from alternator-battery up to the point of connection of the power amps. That is, the higher the current drawn by the amplifier, the higher the voltage drop(DIP). If you don't want to use capacitor, used heavy wire and directly connect to the battery terminals with fuse protection. You can also use 12 volts relay to control the positive polarity going to your amps. The 12 volts relay must be wired so that it will be controlled by the key switch when switched at ACC.

    Mga boss,

    Yung FX ko, kinabitan ko ng HU ng Ford Expedition (2DIN). Pag gabi na at nakabukas yung headlights ko, medyo mahina yung ilaw at basag ang busina.
    1. Malakas bang kumain ng kuryente yung mga 2DIN kesa sa simpleng CD players lang po?
    2. Do I need a capacitor po?

    1. Basically, the battery will provide the additional current required if the total load is more than the maximum output current of the alternator. For this reason, battery will be discharged, thus flickering of light or mahina at basag ang busina. Your power source capacity is under rated based on your actual connected loads.

    2. No, capacitor will work only during transient voltage DIP or under voltage. It will not correct the power requirement of your loads.

    Solution:
    1. Reduce your unnecessary connected loads which will be based on the power output of your alternator.
    2. Give enough time for the battery to be charged.

    Mga experts sorry dun sa una ko nasend nagkamali lang po bago pa lang ko sa pc e.aNyway ask din po sana ko kasi set up ko my capacitor na,2 ampli di naman napugak pugak ung ilaw pero medyo mahina sya kahit pagsabayin ko ung pati foglight.Tapos twice na po nangyayari sa gabi pag sabay ang tugtog ng set up ko at mga ilaw tumitirik ung auto ko after ko off ang engine ayaw na magstart ulit kaya super tulak ayun nastart naman.Ano po kaya problema sa auto ko?Battery po nya is 15months pa lang.Motolite mf.Sana mkareply po kyo,thanks in advance.God bless

Capacitor?
