ChristianMcKay 1 Posted October 29, 2009 No issue, but it's minimum 30° C (86° F) in the shade down here, so all amps get hot but they do work as they should!Yours never get hot? Damn...!I live in Louisiana, I know all about hot weather. And my amps never get to hot to touch.Yeah, I'm in Mississippi, my amps will go on playing for several hours in direct sunlight and not get hot.Wow, difficult to believe.But I will check that. How can you play for hours , in the sun, and your amp never gets hot? There's a trick? Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. I don't have AC either. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcarter1885 995 Posted October 29, 2009 Yersterday he was asking me for fans !!! We will think about it soon.Thanks BTW : I have no voltage drop, always above 13.4 v with a/c on, and I have not done the Big3 yet! But I know I will upgrade the electrical system someday, with new batt(s).You need to take care of the Big 3 ASAP, or at least do the two ground wires and do the positive wire later (believe me those will help in voltage and amps temperature).

I live in Texas and when I get in the car on hot days my amp is already hot just due to the temperature in the trunk alone and there not in direct sunlight.

Notorious97200 339 Posted October 29, 2009 I will do the Big3 as soon as I can. The alternator is not easily reachable, I have to take some parts off before, and I'm not good at mechanics, or at electricity!!!I think the amps grounds are not so bad, but it's worth checking them again.I already have the 0 ga ground on the battery. It helped a lot for the electrical, I could see it on my voltmeter.I will tell you the improvements. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notorious97200 339 Posted October 29, 2009 Thank you Jay-Cee, they were trying to fool me!!!!!!!! LolMy amps get hot, but you can't cook on them, you can still touch them without getting burnt!!!The saz gets hotter than the 50.4, and I am cool with that.I will work on the electrical part, when I'm on holidays, sooooon !!!!!!! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I know I will upgrade the electrical system someday, with new batt(s).That's voltage drop good fellow. Vehicle charges at 14.4, if your not at 14.4 then you has drop. And unless your alt is making more power then your using, then you has drop as well. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Notorious97200 339 Posted October 29, 2009 14.4 all vehicles? I don't think so!! Not my Toyota. lolin theory 14.4v.But I admit that my electrical system is not the best at all!!! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
