XS Power

would a vcm work on my alt ?... its a 05 f150 with a dual alt bracket/alt form dc power/ my stock alt charges my stock electrical and my dc power charges my sound system batts. i wanna use 16v batts, charge @ 18. would a vcm work on my dc power alt ?

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

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?

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?

What is the thread size for a D3100? Why does it say on the battery not to exceed 14.4 volt for charging? (I see people charging around 15 volts all the time on here) What will happen if my charger "exceeds" 14.4 volts?

I have a d3400 under my hood and its been there for 6 months, suddenly one of my buddy told me that the d3400 can't handle the heat under the hood because we live in a tropical country. How will i check if my battery is still in good condition? What are the signs that i've damage my battery due to its location?

where can I buy some D3100 in Hawaii?? do we have a dealer here in Hawaii as well??... Aloha

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 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?

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????

Hey guys curious what is the biggest Powermaster Battery i can fit in the stock location on my 06 F150. and What sizes of alts can you or do you carry for the truck too its got a 5.4 Liter V8

how do i know if i need a high output alternator??? i have 2x15 inch fully loaded btls on a lanzar opti drive 6000d and 2 additional lanzar opti drives for highs 100x4 each.. i currently have 2 kinetik 2400 batteries one in the front and 1 in the back... thanks advance!!!!

I have enough money for either battery, I am just curious which is better for my needs: It has to be a 12v battery that has 6 cells or less and is less than 800 cubic inches, but both batteries already fit this criteria I think. I will be replacing my starting battery first and then adding a secondary battery later. I will change vehicles at some point in the next few years so I guess the smaller s1200 would be more flexible as far as space limitations are concerned, but the 3400 would fit in the starting battery location of my current vehicle, (1993 Saturn SW2). As long as either battery fits I will go with the one with more juice, (of course), but I know that the 3400 d…

I have looked at the chart you have posted many times and in the end I guess it leaves me confused. I understand that using one battery for the vehicle will have less reserve for the stereo system as opposed to multiple batteries. My understanding is that the battery is there as a, "buffer", for lack of a better term. It is my understanding that the battery will deliver amps "quicker" than the alternator can react, which is why more batteries can stabilize voltage with a heavy amp draw. I understand that the chart posted is very general in terms of what battery can support "XXX" amount of wattage. What I'd like to know before making a decision on which battery I may need…

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?

I'm planning on powering a sundown 2000d off a regular battery up front and a D3100 in back. Don't think my puny little 90Amp stock alt will survive for long with that load so... Let me rephrase lol "makes one" for less than like 600$? I emailed a representative at MechMan and they wanted me to ship out my current alt so they could clone the casing and make me a custom 200 amp one for 599$ because its a one off project?! Any reasonable prices on these things?

I have a XS-D5100 up front and 3 Deka 9a31s in the trunk. Is this bad to mix and match? Will the XS drain the dekas?

i will be running an 15'' btl on a RFamp (3000 watts rms)....How big of a h/o alternator is needed? 200 amp? 250 amp? How many batteries should i get? How powerful? Brands? i will also be running my speakers on 100 watts each

I am planning on using a D3400 under the hood as my stock replacement starting battery and a D3400 in my trunk as an auxiliary battery for my amplifiers. I want to use an isolator/relay between the two batteries, atleast 300 amp. I am considering a Stinger SGP35 500amp isolator/relay. Is this a good isolator/relay to use with XS Power batteries or is there something better? Thanks

Hey guys I just saw the price sheet for 2011 and there is going to be a price increase due to lead prices being on the rise for the past year or so. Now would be a great time to get your batteries before the increase. Check out the SSA store now to take advantage of the 2010 prices.

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?

Hehe jeah, I hear these batteries are beastly. I have a 1000 watt subwoofer amp and 400 watt amp for the highs/mids. I want a S3400. What kind of price will you guys get me for one shipped to 39773. Would like for it to ship out on tuesday if possible. I have money ready but I need a great price on a great battery.
