I have a 99 3 door Z71. I've upgraded the big 3 to 1/0 ga. I've put 200 amp Iraggi alt. in. I've got 2 Kinetik 1800's in the back. My amps are a RF T600-4, T1000-1. My volt meter still jumps alot and my lights still dimm a little. I just bought the 2 kinetik's new about 3 weeks ago. I put those 2 back there because I was planning on upgrading sub amp and 2-12's. But if it can't keep up with what I have there's no need. Is there something I'm missing to do or what? I don't listen to stereo very often with truck off. I just don't understand what's going on.

What does your volt meter usually read. Also have you checked the grounds?

check grounds and did you do the big 3?

It sounds like you have wiring problem (check grounds or get alternator and batteries checked). Those 2 Kinetiks should push that system without almost any problems, well I just checked the stats on those amps and they are some power hungry beasts (the RF T600-4 needs a 150A fuse alone and the T1000-1 also, so you have the adequate amp hours to handle these amps). Are those two Kinetik batteries the only ones you have or you have a starting battery in their as well?

check grounds and did you do the big 3?

Yeah he did the Big 3 already.

didn't catch that. my bad

I have have a starting battery also. I just got the shop to install new power and grounds as well, about 2 weeks ago. I thought that was the problem, but it still exists even after changing and making sure grounds were good. Its not as bad as it was but it still does it. First get in truck everything is fine, last night after I went somewhere, I just set in trunk for maybe 10 min, with it cranked, listened to it at a pretty good volume but not wide open, meter dropped well below 14 (just regular dash meter). I turned it down and it goes back up. Something is not right.

Do I need to buy one of those Kinetik charges and replenish the batteries or something.

Your note supposed to blast your music really with it idling, that could cause some voltage drop, how far below the 14v is it falling? How does the voltage due when riding around? Yeah a battery charger would be smart since your alt cant charge all those batteries everyday, allday. I added an extra ground from my battery to my cars frame and that helped keep the voltage stabile even at idle, just a tip. Maybe someone with more experience with the electrical side of things will chime in.

Voltage does ok while driving just not sitting still.

Sitting at idle causes everybody to have some sort of voltage drops, just depends on how big of a drop. How much is the voltage dropping while at idle?

should it drop that quick with the batteries that I have?
