[QUOTE="appleyard, post: 1554206, member: 7751"] hi1983 & oldskool I was wondering where on earth do you got these answer. 1. Definitely no. Adding a cap or even a 2nd battery will strain your alternator. Alternator will keep up in supplying current to 1st battery and car electrical system added with 2nd or a cap plus amp capasitor power supply. Straining your alternator will shorten its life. Upgrading your alternator to bigger ones still require you to upgrade to a bigger battery or add another one as current supply may be massive and may overload your car electrical system and batteries. 2. Capasitor is a storage system where it stores current. Battery creates current by chemicals reaction. Now how on earth do you think cap is better than a battery. Cap has high resistance called ESR. In fact battery also has high ESR but it compensate by creating electricity charges. 3. Yes cap is always cheaper than battery, but does cheap means better in function? Do you even know what cap do actually? I'm not referring to optima red top or yellow top. Those are definitely 10 times better than any capasitor in this world. I'm referring to a normal battery. 4. A cap drains out its charge in a few second and it recharges longer than it discharge. After the sub hit few times it recharge. Do you see this as an advantage? The only advantage of a cap compared to a normal battery is it discharge faster. Overall it still useless. what is the use then? come to KK and i definitely prove you dead wrong. anyone else who wish to know more about cap or ESR or what it would effect your oerall system i'll be glad to provide a link.
