Legacy Car Audio Power Cap 1.7 Farad

RRP £49.99
An excellent quality power cap for use in car audio, maintaining pwoer to amplifier, enabling it to keep running at maximum effieciency.

Todays 12v Auto electrical system is near obselete with the demands placed but extras such as alarms, electric windows, power seats etc.

Cars now come with so many accessories that the capacity of the system is always stretched - before we even begin to add power hungry amplifiers!

A typical amplifier draws more current than all the other optional extras on the car combined!

An amplifiers power output is determined by its voltage input - for example if an amplifier puts out 200w at 14.4v it may only put out 100w at 11 volts!

When the voltage is low the amplifier goes into premature clipping or distortion.

Distortion is the leading cause of speaker damage / failure

Distortion forces the amplifier to run very hot - eventually causing amplifier failure.

Distortion is the leading cause of damage to hearing and hearing loss rather than volume itself.

The easiest and quickest solution from an instant power point of view is a good cap.

Reviewer: Tomasz Burnett

Cheap and cheerful, functions well, display is nice, terminals could be a bit more solid but at this price honestly can't grumble!
Nice of them to include the charging resistor too.
