We're do you put it
Capacitors 101. For all the newbies, hell that probably includes me. Say you have a sweet ride, you're not going to run it through the carwash. You do it yourself. Now you got the car all soapy and sudsy. You go to use the water hose to rinse it off but the water pressure is terrible. Like you're trying to rinse off your car with a bad showerhead. What do you do, you grab an empty bucket and let it fill with the water all the way to the top. You take that water bucket and splash down the roof with one or two big passes just blasting the soapy water away. That's kinda how a capacitor works. Your capacitor is a lifeless bucket your battery is constantly filling up with water and the water overflows out the top to your amplifiers keeping them going. At one point your amplifier says we gonna need a shitload of water to keep this bass note flowing. Cool. BASS note is gonna hit hard. The capacitor water is just sucked out of it for that note. Almost have the bucket is gone. But the water keeps flowin into it and none of the other systems, headllights, leds, cell phone charger, ac blower motor, They're all drinking from the same hose too but since the capacitor was full of water, it was able to dish it out and nobody else new it cause it had some to spare.
Perfect explanation
Cool man, stupid simple just what I needed thanks for that.
1:30 I’ve had the same exact problem. Ended up buying a capacitor. Solved the problem. Very informative video 👍🏿
Coming from someone who just hooked this same thing up yesterday, you are supposed to charge it up until the LED quits flashing, as per the instructions that came in the packaging. If you become impatient and don't want to hold it (it only takes about 30 seconds to a minute), then just wrap one end of the resister to the positive terminal of the cap, and the other end to the positive cable coming from the battery.
I just let it sit for a minute while I went back inside to take care of something really fast. Wasn't worried about draining my battery down too far by accident, since I was using my car audio battery which I have isolated from the starting battery when the vehicle is off. Otherwise, I really like how your install looks. Much cleaner than my own. lol.
love the vid good work
Love your video bro helped me a lot
Thank for your video u show me more understanding
Keep it up people will always have something to say good job
Nice thanks dude
hey just wanted to hit ya up to say thanks for the helpful vid, i learned alot from it cause i had the same problem as you with sub cutting off at high volume so after this vid i feel ready to install my capasitor to i was nervous cause i tried one years ago and almost blew up my whole system so thank you for your helpful vids,Dave
Great video
Dont know why, but i like your style, if the shit works it works, no need to get all technical with a little 2 sub setup imo, all the shit laying around in the car looks like mine, subscribed lol
I see that b series in that civic, nice
good video
Nice!
Upgrading the alternator is a way better choice. Most capacitors are just trash, and running multiple batteries won't help if the alternator is too weak to charge the batteries.
HKvsGlock I don't think it's a choice of one over the other.
HKvsGlock
You also need good batteries and a battery isolator for the batteries running the sound system!
I was just going to comment about upgrading the alternator. An 80 or 90 amp alternator just won't hold up long term even when using a cap... I've never had any issue with a single battery and a 140-160 amp alternator.
I got a 240 amp alternator and only a stock battery, I’m gonna upgrade to a optima yellow top battery and see if I still need a capacitor
06:00 I'd do it the other way around, lightly grip the wire in the vise,and leave the terminal out to solder; this way the plastic will not get burned as much, *AND* the terminal will heat up faster and more uniformely, since the vise won't be robbing the heat. At least,grab the terminal by the very tip of the ring, that works too.
Caps are only good for quick slaps but as soon as a long bass note comes up it does not have time to charge back up then it also becomes a load to the electrical system. That's why is wise to upgrade the alternator or add a battery
These are the facts right here...well said. My 425 amp alternator arrives next week (dedicated to stereo, 2 alt set up 😁 1 battery yellow top😉 no caps. The long bass note is exactly what happens, and then the caps never catch up....👍
Good to know
Big help
Will you show the video of you holding the RESISTOR across the terminals of a fully charged cap?......please?
Yes 👏🏻
Nice massive amp do you have the whole kit from massive because its fairly new
good
*WARNING!* Experts below.
Lmao. Ikr
That turbo look good under the hood
Love the car man!
Thanks Kyle!
Qn. What are you doing with the Sony subs?
is that the p 800.4 massive amp? my uncle gave that 10in sub and 2 6.9s sounds great
Is the capacitor both terminal will always connected with bettery..?? coz amp has remote switch to on
Let's say I have a distribution fuse block coming of the battery splitting through 2 separate fuses for 2 amps; do I just parallel after my fuse for my monoblock?
I know jack about cars but I sat here, eyes glued to you, stud. damn!
Creep😂
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice video
Buen video. Yo tengo el capacitor boss 10000 faradios. Y me queda la luz led fija y no va al ritmo de la música.. y no se porque. O abra sido el cable mal puesto.:(
I have had many set up's in several vehicle's & I always s come back to a 92 Pontiac Grand-am that I once had with a decent set up & even though I was drawing MORE AMP'S then what my alternator put out,( I was drawing 127 amp's on a 120 amp alternator) I added a 1 farrod cap & NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH HEADLIGHT'S DIMMING! HOW THAT IS POSSIBLE, IT IS NOT BUT, SOMEHOW IT WORKED! I RAN TWO 1,000 CCA BATTERY'S W/1 FARROD CAP & THAT PONTIAC HIt HARD!!! now I have a focus w/ Memphis srx 5000.1 & 2-12's & 1 farrod cap & MAN DO MY HEADLIGHTS DIM! I NEED A BETTER ALTERNATOR BAD!!!
Is there somewhere were I can get the lcd volt reader ? I really need a few
and if i may ask still resistor will be attached to positive power cable, due to having a
capacitor
I'm here for Dim headlights..also my odometer is dimming n blanking but that might be a separate issue, but at the Same time tho?
Maybe that tiny little ground wire is the source of your problems, ground wire of same or greater size should be ran from the amp to a clean ground point, cap should also have it's own ground.
i have a 94 explorer with a 180amp alternator, led lights in and out and 90w led headlights and im running a sony 4200 headunit, four 6.5 sonys, four power acoustik tweets, two 15" qpowers and a 4000w ssl evo amp and i dont have any battery issues
Thanks for the information 👍🏽
hello NTHEFastLane, can i use a capacitor even though i dont got a amplifier? i do have some 12v leds, windshield wipers, heater defroster running very ofter and i got a small battery.. will it help??
is it mandatory that you half to have one i have a 98 ford explorer eddie bauer with a 3000 watt pyle amp with two kenwood 12 inch subs
always something good to learn
Good job bud
Thanks Big!
you must have the negative terminal of the capacitor grounded to charge it
Nthefastlane hey, I tried to hook it up the exact same way as u, and it wont work. have the same capacitor, and it just keeps blinking 9.2, and my amp wont come on. what do I do? Please help
Michael Mosher- Use ur multimeter, assure you have a proper ground. Drill into the chassis/frame, sand the surface bare too. Use also star washers made of stainless steel w ring terminals, throw some hair on the torque too.
Ted Phillips that's just nuts. It doesn't take all that to hook up a capacitor. I have a 2000 watt amp grounded in my trunk, and it works fine. thanks for the insanity, but I'll pass
does it matter which leads go on first or rather on top of one another on the capacitor ? ex: first positive on the capacitor come from the batter, then the power wire that sits on top that leads out to your amp? sorry if i didnt explain that right, just trying to make sure i dont blow up my system when i install one lol.
can you answer this?
i recently purchased a capacitor (Sound Storm C22 2 Farad ) with 16v to 24v surge. i have a 12v battery in my car. will this capacitor work with 12v system?
Can't wait to hear that new turbo in action! Another good video man
I know Reece! Trust me,I'm itching to get into boost again. Thanks Buddy :)
Not to diss but you did it wrong! The amp should have it's own ground the capacitor should as well. The shorter the grounds the better
Fido Tru literally what I was thinking this shits confusing
Fido Tru This video lost credibility the moment I saw a WalMart Scosche capacitor being installed with inappropriate guage ring terminals that are being stretched open to fit the cable. Everyone's an installer nowadays! smh
FarAboveDaCloudz true!
SO NEGATIVE CABLES IM GUESSING YOU MEAN? CAUSE WHEN I HOOK AMP POWER CABLE TO AMP THEN NEGATIVE WIRE I HOOK UP MY TRUNK SOME SCREW THERE XD BUT MY LIGHTS BLINKING SO BATTER CABLE GOES POSITIVE THEN ADDITIONAL POSITIVE CABLE CAP TO AMP AND AMP NEGATIVE CABLE HOOK SOME WHERE IN TRUNK, ALSO CAP NEGATIVE CABLE HOOK SOMEWHERE IN TRUNK THATS YOU MEAN SHORTER THE GROUNDS? INSTEAD OF HOOKING BOTH NEGATIVE TO CAP HOW ABOUT ONE OF EM? IM CONFUSED
JR GRIFFIN Hook up your positive cable from battery to the Cap and run another positive cable from cap to amp then have two negative cables as short as possible in length and grounded to two separate areas of the car if possible, one negative cable from the car will run to you capacitor and the Second negative cable from the car will run to your amp. In theory your amplifier and your capacitor will be running on two completely separate grounds. When done, your capacitor should have two positive wires on it and only one negative wire going to it. That's how I've always hook mine up with no problems.
11:10 That's what she said. Good Video! Surprised the hell out of me with a Turbo under the hood!
hello, I bought a crunch cr1000, I set it up as it was written in the prospectus. But the light is still flashing. I have a blaupunkt gta 4 special 750w amplifier and hifonics zxi12bp (1000w/500rms) subwoofer. Please help.
is it bad if you didnt charge your campacitor. ? when i first got mine, i just hooked it straight up to my amp and battery and it show my voltage. i never knew you had to charged it. i was woundering why it came with resisder. so doesnt it really matter to charge it. idk if my is working right. cuz i didnt charged it
Basically attach positive....or actually connect it,?
The song MURDERED this video ! Ugh emo dub-step house cr*p
Soldering is good but you should have the right connector for the right size wire and crimp it and solder if you like
Thanks for the video nice turbo setup you got there did you keep ac?
Ashwin Sivaainkaran Yes a/c and power steering. Check out the a/c section on my channel for the how to.
Holy crap man
Do i need disconnect all the cable for discharge the capasitors??
What are you running a Jensen 8"? Hitting 160 still?
So I don't need to ground the cap when charging? Cool stuff. Glad I can disregard that negative/ground wire then... Thanks for the excellent hint. end.sarcasm
These cap videos get more hate than Trump. Relax its not rocket surgery people.
Fr the only reason I'm watching this is to really make sure🤣
What if I have two amps and both amps wired tons fuse distributor
Kapasitör nasil baglanir ve aktif etmek ocin diren lazimmu
That's total opposite of what I was told. Thought to charge it to as close to 12 volts as possible then hook it up
shouldnt be adding capacitor or battery without upgrading the alternator!. your going to put way to much stress on the alternator.
Miss CarAudio by leonie how do you upgrade the alternator?
Carson John Replace the stock alternator with a high amp alternator, but you may not really need to. Have a good mechanic check to see if it’s needed.
What is the name of the song he played vat the end and thx for the video
Is mass audio any good?
Nthefastlane good vid👍. I got a question, I got a 1100RMS amp and when I’m cruising around the bass never cuts out no matter how loud I have it. But when I come to a complete stop and my vehicles RPMs get low the bass cuts out if I have my system turned up. Will a capacitor help get rid of this problem? If so what size capacitor should I get? If a capacitor won’t help in this situation what do you think will fix this problem?
Capacitor ,yellow top optima battery ,high out put alternator for maximum performance
So you basically use the amp to charge your capacitor?
Need a separate ground for the capacitor, #1 and 2nd, if you don't have at least the big 3 done, then this is almost a futile effort. I've used plenty of 2 farad caps, without the big 3 on 1500 rms and had dimming, Hit up the big 3 upgrade and dimming was gone. Your electrical system (charging) as a whole is only as good as the smallest wire. You can run 6 feet of 0 ga wire then connect it to 2 inches of 8 ga wire then run another 6 feet of 0 ga wire and you will essentially be running on 8 ga wire power. that's just how electricity works. So without the big 3, the battery will almost ALWAYS suck more juice then it can get. The stock wires in your charging system on your car are highly inefficient, but they are also not taking into consideration that you will need all that power for an amp. In my personal experience I've went from 12.3 volts to 13.8 volts just from the big 3 ran with 0 ga ofc . If you are going to install a system with a cap, then it's important to do the big 3 always, unless you are running a 300 watt rms amp and a 300 watt rms sub. At that point everything will be fine, usually.
I knew these comments were gonna be the old alt vs batt vs cap. Smart bassheads use all 3 in combination. Hell I'm using 3 batts, high output alt, and a 5 cap bank just for one 3k amp.
Will it still be fine?
Using stock alternator+stock battery+ 800amp capacitor + 3k rms amp? Also using true ofc 2/0 gauge wire
Dude that's hella over kill🤣🤷
@@txjreyes8545 lol, was 3 years ago. 5k now. Going to an 8k very soon.
Hey is that the same solder and flux you use on copper pluming please. I like the way your installing thanks
No use rosin core not acid core
Any idea on why my capacitor has a blinking red line and no numbers and the bass nor audio will come out the speakers
What is the name of that resistor you use dude?thanks a lot...
yea you really charged the shit out of that thing, nice work. lol
What ohm resistor will I need?
P.s I'm a fallow you because I love Civic and it don't hurt to learn from a gear head 😏
So your radio will shut off before I have a 2019 malibu with a 3500 watts hyfonics Gemini 35th edition and my radio turns off at times
Do i need one? cuzz i have an 800 watts amp , max peak 16oo watts. on a 2007 crown Vic V8....
Can 1 compasiter run 2 small amps
Would it work with a 2010 dodge avenger rt I have a 12 inch mtx sub and amp and a capacitor
Type of vehicle is irrelevant.
Whatever you do don't follow this video.
Capacitor ground is not supposed to come directly from the battery ground.
Please share song name which is play for bass test duration 12:13
Thanks
So I purchased a capacitor same as this guy, it didn’t come with a resistor. Would I still be able to activate it or charge it without it?
Tha work for 3 amps ?? Or just for 1
👍
Hi
I have a E-Bik
Battery is : 60v 20 amp 1500watt
Wich capasitor can i but for my bike?
Thnx
I've seen a lot videos that say that a cap is useless. Do these really work or not?
That turbo civic tho
The only part that get hooked up from the cap to the amp should be the positive
these are meant for batteries arent they so they charge or dont lose charge
I carefully drilled holes in my amp and mounted mine on my amp so it looks very clean and my jumpers from the capacitor to the amp are only 3 inches
😐
😂
Just a suggestion, use your resistor with ground wire not positive it’s too dangerous. You risking shorting.
Hello....I have a capacitor....rated 1000 watt.....I'm only running 1 JBL 1000 watt GT....15"..
But for some reason.....it's not working ......it's brand new....so I'm taking it back...to check.
You didn't tell us if you have the key turned on to ACC or Off..... while installing the capacitor in the beginning?
When you are working with any wires disconnect your battery
This is all wrong! That wire isn't 8 gauge, I don't know if it claims to be. Those ring terminals are not rated for that wire. You stretched them to make them fit. Solder is not pronounced soul-der. The way you soldered those ring terminals, you didn't even get solder in the wire... It's just all on the outside of the ring terminal where you put the flux. I don't think you charged the capacitor, it had no voltage stored. It was showing 0 volts. That Walmart capacity isn't even a farad or 2 farads like it claims to be, waste of time and money to install. I can't strop shaking my head as this video continues.
Also, you didn't even have it wired properly. The capacitor should have it's own ground, it shouldn't share with the amps.
Do they do much
Or just a waste ?
I got two 12 inc audiobahn in a bandpass box with a 600 wat amp im not gettin anything do i need a xapacitor?
You need a bigger "wat" amp
the "L" is silent in the word solder, lol. and damn that's a lot of flux, not saying too much, just a lot. good video though man, keep them up!
Flux… Capacitor… LOL
Do you need to have the fuse on power wire in when you charge the capacitor
No
Hola, yo instale todo y el capacitor se recalento, hasta llegó a tirar humo tan solo conectando el positivo. Por que puede ser ?
Hey do you have a link to where you buy that capacitor?
Walmart I just got the same one
