XS Power

lookin at one of the xs batteries (5100R) and i got a question, the amp rating is based on 14.4V (right?) and im guessing the 12V on the battery is for how much it puts out so does that mean the amp isnt going to get sufficient power?

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?

As of right now I have a Mechman 270 and two optima red tops under the hood in stock locations. Big 3 done also. I am dropping into 11's on full tilt at idle and mid 12's while driving. I was originally going to replace both red tops up front with the two d3400's which I think would be fine for my power (3600watts roughly) but was wondering should I leave the Redtops up front and put the d3400's in the rear and run wire directly from my alt to those that way they don't pull from the red tops and they are dedicated to the system? Is this a option or should I just stay with my original plan running both up front. Thanks

Check out the new site with the new additions. http://4xspower.com/ Still more to come, but its off to a good start.

Will an xs power d1200 work as a good starting battery and power my 1000w rms system? It will have 0 guage to the alt and the ground plus 2 gauge to the amplifier.

I'm seeing similar wattage recommendations for a few batteries, I wanted to know which one is the best for me as a second battery. Have a red top under the hood and plan to throw a relay between the two batteries. Right now I have 1500W, but plan to upgrade to ~2500 in the future. Thanks!

i just recently got a hold of 2 XS batterys and i was planning to wire them up. but not sure if i would need a fuse inbetween the batterys, i also seen a few with busbars. would i need a fuse from the 2 batterys in the back to the main car battery in the front?

Be safe and have fun! We will be closed Monday.

I wanna know is there any plans for vcm units to be compatible import cars it be nice if that could happen

i got a my xs power charger which is the hf1215 which is the 12 volt version

I have a sundown 100.4 a 125.2 and I'm going to have a crescendo BC5500 as my power source. now, for my batteries I have one d3400 up front and 2 6500's in the rear with a mechman xs270 amp alt w/ adjustable voltage. What do you all think of that? does that sound sufficient?

I need some 2 cents on my new setup which will be 2 Fi Bl 12's fully loaded. im going to have 2 1700 rms watt amps total 3400rms. i have a 125 amp alternater and a redtop battery. i was wanting to keep my stock alternater for low funds reasons. for now what can i use to power the subs? could more batterys work for now?

So, I'm looking into replacing my Kinetik batteries in hopes that my low idle voltage may be a result of not so great battery conditioning and whatnot. Is it recommended to charge the XS Power when you first get them shipped to you? If so, would the CTEK MUS 3300 be good for it? What setting should it be on? The car or snowflake icon??? Thanks in advance for any information regarding this matter... - SHo

Just wondering if you happen to know what the biggest battery that will fit in the front of the scion xb. Was thinking of going with a 3400 and then 2 3100's in the back.

We will be closed Thurs through the weekend for Thanksgiving. Back in the office Monday morning. Have a great weekend!

Hey Nathan, any idea when you'll get the 573 back in stock? As I see it, the date keeps getting pushed back :T Its been a month now, and the date keeps changing :T Its the only delay on my build (I ordered through Bottle at Titan Motorsports w/ a S3400 also).... Thanks Nathan,

Ok, what's with the reverse polarity deal here? What is the benefit? I'm guessing I would have to wire the 5100r different from the 5100 when running it as a second battery? So the black is actually the +, and the red is actually - ? Is the point in this so you can wire it in series?

I E-Mailed you guys today about a VCM. How you guys have one for my car!

We will be out of the office October 28th through November 7th. Email will be the best way to get in contact with me during this time, because I will not be able to check my voice mails until I get back. If you are going to be at SEMA make sure and stop by the booths 23512 & 11209. If are not going to make it to SEMA, but want to see the awesome builds and new products from around the show make sure and check out our FaceBook pages for updates! FaceBook Page

I have a acura rsx 06 and i was wondering which batt would fit under my hood? any inputs? Thanks alot

Ok, from what i understand, in most applications you wire your batteries in parallel rather than series because series will turn 2 12 volt batteries into a 24 volt battery correct? Why parallel though? in theory wouldn't that turn 2 12 volt batteries into a 6 volt battery then? From what i have found, parallel doesnt change voltage but does change the capacity. This is what makes no sense to me because under every law of electronics i've learned, you would be halving the voltage. thanks for any info. this isn't an important question that is dire to a job, its just something i've been curious about and no one can give me a straight answer as to why i'm "wrong" for think…

i just got my hands on a XS Power D375 battery, now im figuring how to hook it up to my system? battery postive to battery positive? i just need a little help with the install. i just dont want my car to go up in flames. anyones 2 cents will be helpful.

Alright in my Dodge Challenger my lights dim pretty bad with my system in now. System is ~1500 watts. Not sure if efficiency takes place when considering this though because two of the amps run strictly at 8ohms on all channels. Anyways I just have my stock battery and it isn't cutting it, dimming lights is no good. I would really like to just replace my stock battery, I have all my trunk space available and would like to keep it that way, so this is my only option. Anyways it looks like the D2600 would be a direct drop in and the D6500 would fit if I removed the battery tray. Would either of these be sufficient enough to emlinate the dimming lights? On a side, I have the…
