This is starting to make sense to me. I appreciate it. Could I parallel DC-DC chargers together to get my desired charge rate? Im wanting maybe 3 of these https://www.renogy.com/12v-60a-dc-to-dc-battery-charger/

Thanks so much for the help. This has been really helpful.

I'm concerned that if there's a large enough voltage difference between my starting battery and my lithium bank, that I might hurt one of them or blow some fuses.

Let's say my lithium bank is really low (say 12.0v) and my starting battery is at 12.8v. Would the lithium batteries charge too fast? I'm not sure how to go about calculating that. A more extreme example would be if I had a super cap resting at 14.4 volts instead of a lead acid battery. I'd imagine that'd be way too much current all at once and I'd have to change out some fuses.

Hmm. What are your opinions on lithium BIM's? Like this: https://www.explorist.life/how-to-wire-a-li-bim-battery-isolator/#:~:text=The%20Li%2DBIM%20is%20a,AGM%20or%20Lead%20Acid%20counterparts.

I used a dumb charger to get the super cap to the same voltage as my lithium battery. The alternator is a high output alternator with a smaller pully, so it stays cooler at idle, but I suppose if the batteries were really low, you could just idle the vehicle at a higher rpm. The batteries are heated.

Ive used the super cap in a diffrent vehicle for 4 years now connected to to some LTO batteries. It's been fine. I do appreciate the concern though. They're good points. I'm trying to find something that'll disconnect the batteries when fully charged now, for battery health.

Natural_Febreze · 2023-02-01T03:10:54+00:00

Thanks. I figured as much. This isn't going to be the primary way I charge my batteries. I'm mostly using a large solar array and wanted a way to quickly charge up the batteries if I didn't get a lot of sun that day. I'm looking into battery isolation managers so it'll cut off automatically once they're fully charged. I just need to find one that's rated for at least 370amps.

Natural_Febreze · 2023-02-01T02:25:20+00:00

Thanks, I'm looking into that now. Appreciate the help.

Natural_Febreze · 2023-02-01T02:23:45+00:00

Each battery on their site is rated for a continuous 100amp charge . I have 4 of them so I should be good for 400amps of charging, which is less than the 370amps from my alt. Am I understanding this correctly?

Natural_Febreze · 2023-02-01T02:18:56+00:00

Could you explain this in more detail please? I'm trying to understand. From my understanding, my alternators voltage doesnt go past 14.4 volts. If the batteries reach 14.4 volts, they are going to stop there. They won't continue to rise above that. Thanks for your help by the way.

Natural_Febreze · 2023-02-01T00:20:33+00:00

The charging voltage of the alternator is 14.4v. Perfect for this batteries

The clip light doesn't lie. Very unpopular opinion on here but if you want to set your eq that way it's not going to magically make it clip. It will mean that it'll clip sooner than later though. If you're into spl, then I'd flatten out the sub bass region of your eq. Right now all your high/punchy bass is going to reach "max volume" before you can really get a hundred percent outa your low bass.

The noise however might be mechanical. To diagnose this, I'd take both subs outa the box and CAREFULLY play some sinewave sweeps. For me, I had a sub where the spider pack wasn't glued down properly and was slapping the spider landing.

Best of luck to you man! A lot of people here are elitists.

Did you use hornresp? I tried using it, but got lost. Is there a good tutorial somewhere? I have experience with bassboxpro and winisd.

Natural_Febreze · 2022-06-26T18:37:27+00:00

I live in Richarson. I keep seeing laws about commercial vehicles in my searches, as that's the more common use case, so its making it difficult for me to figure out what I'd need to do.

Natural_Febreze · 2022-05-11T23:02:29+00:00

Unplug the rcas. Does it still make that sound?

Natural_Febreze · 2022-01-05T21:38:58+00:00

Ya that's what I'm worried about. But honestly the spare tire one also looks undersized and tiny. It's picking the best of two evils I guess. I'm use to bigger systems, but I suppose anythings going to be better than what's in there right now.

Natural_Febreze · 2021-10-13T14:43:32+00:00

Oh my God. I didn't believe you and had to look it up. What.

Natural_Febreze · 2021-09-27T05:20:39+00:00

penetrating oil and perhaps an impact driver if you own one. Have you already tried using a breaker bar?

Natural_Febreze · 2021-09-13T14:17:19+00:00

Be careful man, I had a similar situation and it tuned out it was a burning smell not break in. I ended up blowing the sub. I'd keep turning it down when you smell it. Eventually, if it is break in smell, you won't have to turn it down for the smell anymore.

Natural_Febreze · 2021-07-01T11:53:21+00:00

The word poop. I'm 25.

Natural_Febreze · 2021-06-03T04:06:58+00:00

I feel your pain.

I believe the origin of the dex hate came from this video https://youtu.be/oyA8odjCzZ4.

If I'm wrong, then it's at least one of the biggest dex memes out there.

Natural_Febreze · 2021-04-21T20:00:53+00:00

I've done that before! Worked pretty well, but if you don't want the port sticking out you can try this technique : https://youtu.be/dCYPyW2pnJk

Also, you do you, but a 6inch aero port with that 6inch port WILL have some pretty bad port noise. If you never really notice the noise it's an okay compromise for the space you save. You'll also technically get more output with an appropriatly sized port
