XS Power

Huge Car Audio Build Trippi Congo’s H2 Build

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

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 ?

We have the VCMs back in stock and ready to go with the original applications only. We currently do not have any VCMs for Ford applications.

What does this do? There isn't much info on the website about it and I can't find any info anywhere else. I was told it would raise and hold the voltage of the vehicle it is hooked up in to a set voltage and will regulate it there. Is this true? How high would it hold on a stock 120 amp alternator safely for testing purposes?

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

I desperately need one of these, do you have one in stock that I can get headed my way ? Thanks, Lance

1996 Volvo 850 Non-Turbo Either gonna get a regular 100 amp Bosch or a H.O. alt. but don't want to really pay the price Help, thanks

Welcome to SSA. this should be benificial for all

it's 2600watts without the lighting and other things in the car. so just the audio is 2600watts.

I have a 07 Suzuki reno and still using the stock ac delco battery im looking to replace that with a better aftermarket battery I was looking at the Optima Red Top Because they have a battery that fits my car I do have a system in this car id say total rms is around 1200watts give or take this battery will be my starting battery also im looking for any sugguestions on what you guys recommend to replace my stock battery with. Thanks

Hi Guys, I am planning to upgrade my car audio, right now I have stock alternator and D3400 at my trunk and my system is Nightshade 12" and 2000watts amplifier. I will be adding 1 more 2k watts amps. Do I need to upgrade or get another D3400 or single D3100 can handle the 4k watts amps? Thanks, Albert

Im going to be running 4 of the new Cadence IA9 HC and Im going to be getting 2 of the upcoming goup 27 batteries from powermaster in the fall along with a D3400 up front and 1 D1200 and 1 D680 in the back and according to powermaster new website on the amount of power each battery can handle the 2 2700 should be able to handle 4000 watts rms a piece as back ups and then the 1200 is 2000 rms I think and the 680 is 1000 rms and the 3400 since its up front should be 2000 watts rms as well and then I have all this on a 250 amp alt from mechman my question is am I figuring this right and will the 4 IA9hc which put out 2400 rms a piece be ok or will I have to be careful I plan…

I have an option to use a step up converter to run at 18.5v. I can't set it any higher or i risk damaging my amps as they are only rated up to 18.5v. Is 18.5v high enough to charge a D1000? If it's not, what is the recommended voltage and how good would 18,.5v be before i would have to top it off myself with a charger? once a week maybe?

hey wud up? i'm running two Sundown amps( 100.4 and saz1000d) . i want 1 battery to run the system n my Dodge Ram....... what model should i get?

I have a 2003 ford f-150 triton V8. with the stock 130 amp alt. a 0 gauge big three upgrade. i'm running a kicker zx1500.1 at 2 ohms. the birthsheet says 1778 watts, and a sx400.2 at 4 ohms per channel. I'de say all together close to 2000 watts. I want to replace the primary battery with an xs battery. wich one should i get? my guess is the D5100

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

I want to know which is the best battery that fits under the hood of a Saturn Vue. Year 08, 09 and 10 I was hoping I was gonna be able to put a D3100 under the hood, but the factory seems to have a more square-ish shape. Let me know

Going to finally bite the bullet and purchase a 5100r for my truck what terminals would be the right ones to add to my order? thanks kevin

Gonna see if I can ask this right. No matter the 12v battery, why are the cells in side of a battery typically rest at 2.17v? What is so special to make this common, yet generic at the same time? Why do we not increase these just a hair, like 2.3v per cell? Why has something like this not been done? I do not understand the build of a battery obviously. @2.3v per cell, we would have a 13.8v battery capable of safely charging around 15.3v. Reason i bring this up is the 14v battery seems like a trial and error install in terms of it "may" work but if it doesn't.. your electronics will get damaged. That's not acceptable so why hasn't\wasn't a less severe approach going from …

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?

If i buy a new 3400 direct from xs in TN have it shipped to me will i need to charge it before i install?

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?
