XS Power

I have been ask a few very common questions, so I figured I would just post some of them up. If you have any questions post them up. I will answer them or find the answer for you. CCA is the maximum amperes that can be continuously removed from a battery for 30 seconds at 0°F before its voltage drops to unusable levels. A 550 CCA battery can supply 550 amperes for 30 seconds at 0°F. This was important back in the days when vehicles took a long time to start. Now if you put a charge to your starter for 30 seconds it would probably burn up, and it doesn't make any difference in car audio. CCA is the same test as above but at 32°F. AMP-HOUR RATING is a unit of measurement fo…

Well if you are choosing a secondary battery, then your options are only limited by space you have available and $$$$$. lol Here is a guide for our batteries and the wattage they produce as both starting batteries and secondary batteries. One thing to keep in mind is that when you combined multiple batteries together they produce more individual power, because that optimizes the internal pressure.

All of the S version of the batteries come with brass automotive terminals. All of the S versions also come with metal protective cases (EXCEPT FOR THE S3400) for added under the hood protection. The S3400 DOES NOT come with a metal protective case. The D version batteries do not come with auto terminals, but they do come with the bolts and washer to use with ring terminals. Automotive terminals can be purchased separately (part number # 580 or 586) for these versions. So, if you are going to use the battery under the hood I would suggest buying the S version, but if you are going to use it as a secondary battery the D version would be more economical.

Check out the prices in the store!!!!

Hello, I have a S3400 under the hood, and a Vision 105 Group31 batt in the rear, under my enclosure. I want to get rid of this Vision, anf get an XS battery instead. One of my friend is selling all his SPL equipments. He had a wall wit 2 18" subs, on 2 huge amps, with lots of batts. (No mids & high speakers in that car). I think he reached 160 dB : island record for sure. I would like to know how can I be sure that the XS 7500 I want to buy from him is good. His batteries did not played a lot, they were in his SPL car, going out only for a few comps. I'm running a 2400 w amp on my sub, and a small IA 3.4 at 8 Ohms on my mids & highs. So I …

i have a xs d3100r that keeps growing whitish greenish crystalized corosion on the negative brass battery post. whats up? is it leaking?

Say I have a group of rear batteries near my amps, but I also of course tie in with the front of the car. At the front of the car is a factory 175A alternator, and a stock group 65 battery. How do I figure how much current I could draw from that area so I can run the appropriate wiring. Also I'll be replacing the front battery with an xspower D6500, I want to run the wire that will support that and the alternator instead of doing that later, so I guess maybe the factory battery doesn't really matter in this, but I'd still like to figure out if what I have now is even a bottleneck currently. Waiting for some new amps to arrive and while that goes on I'm doing everything I …

Just got my brand new D4800. I would like to know, should I charge the battery before installing it in the car? Assuming I do need to fully charge it, I dont happen to have a car charger. I read in the documentation included that it needs to be a charged with with a charger that does no more than 2.4v per cell. If I was to take it to Pepboyz or Advanced Auto Parts, how can I make sure they charge it properly?

Simply speaking I am having an issue with the VCM going way over the supossed 15.2v limit. Sometimes when I start the car the VCM is so high that every aftermarket electronic device installed turns on and off over and over including the VCM. While doing this pulls my idle up and down also. Very bad for the electronics in my car, and being that its a 2013 300, I don't want to fry all the computers and such. The dip switches are set how the instructions say, and everything is installed very cleanly. Everything is soldered and shrink wrapped. It also sends everything into protect when im on the highway and there is a break in the bass, voltage spikes up like crazy. The other…

So i've seen several differing opinions on this was jw what the correct thing to do is now days when dealing with 12v xs power batteries such as the d5100R

No lights were left on, no doors were left open (if that could even be an issue since my Ford's lights go off after 10 minutes to save the battery anyway). After getting the batteries charged, I put them in and hope the alternator would do the rest. I left my car running for an hour... Perfect! The battery's voltage tested at 14.4v while running. Then I turned the car off. The voltage dropped to 12.6v, what a fine resting voltage you may think.... After waiting a minute or so, I started to notice that every 5-10 seconds, the voltage dropped by .01v. This was odd, and I'm wondering what's up. I'd love someone to tell me a problem like this is covered under the warr…

Had my xs power for a little over a year now on my integra ls its a 5100r. So i would be driving and bumping and everything was fine but now in this past week ive started to notice my car slowly cranking over hesitating to start and now as i have the car running and bumping my lights are dimming this used to not happen. Those this mean my battery is going bad????

I can only keep charging voltage below 14.4 if I do 2 amp charge. If I go to 8 amp charger reads 15 even. So I'm I right by keeping ampare down?

Just got battery this morning. Charged battery at 14.1 volts at 10 amps before in stalling. Installed battery when to gym everything was good. Let gym still fine. Just when to grab some food started just clicked and nothing not even the dome light. Got DDM out resting voltage is 12.7 but it don't do anything. Put flood battery back started right up on 12.1 voltage. Lasted a whole 8 hours

when I had first installed the battery in my car it was nearly impossible to clip. now after a month or so I am clipping often at lower volumes with most my settings at 0. am I supposed to take the battery out and charge them? maybe replace my alternator?

Used the XS site and put in my vehicles info(01 Burb). It suggested a S3400 underhood and a D3400 aux. I have seen vids showing the D's swelling up due to heat in the engine bay. Yet still I see many still putting the D3400 under the hood without issue. But I digress- the point of my question is that I plan to run both batteries under the hood. should I use 2 S series?

does anyone by chance happen to know how much it costs for shipping for these batteries? I am interested in the d2400

my d2400 arrived in the mail yesterday .. I have a problem though, the website recommended the short posts but dang they are so skinny there's no way my terminals are going to stay.. does anyone know if they make thicker ones? I have the big 3 upgrade using the knukonceptz battery terminals if it matters

Nathan just sent us the email. Check it out on the Google Play or Apple stores. Free.

Just curious why the SSA store has the 311 and 312 models but not the 313. I could order from Summit or Jegs, but hey, support the forum right?

Check out the Facebook page for details!! Great way to give something back to the dealers. www.facebook.com/xspower

If I am going to be running two dc 2.0's strapped, pushing two Level 4 15's. I currently have a D3400 in front, and an XP3000 in rear. If I add another XP3000 will that be good? Going to have a 200A alternator, compared to 110 stock. Unfortunately cannot go bigger on the alt with my car due to belt wrap and pulley style.

I'm in need of posts to use to install the battery. I have a 2000 Acura integra ls which I'm trying to install a 5100r but can't find the correct terminal posts to use. Any advice where I can get them? Thanks

I placed an order for an xs power 5100r and I just received a 5100. What can be done about this issue?
