February 6, 201510 yr Yeah I msg them yesterday about some buss bars..haven't heard back yet. patients pays off though. Steve- you built the bottom bars right?
February 6, 201510 yr Author I have done all the aluminum work except the distro blocks and the 24 single inputs for the amps.those came from toolmaker.
February 10, 201510 yr Author Steve, what is a fair price for caps?which ones?Maxwell's for for around 125-200 depending.The greens one like mine are 300 per bank New
February 10, 201510 yr Author Sorry if this is a stupid question, how many in a bank? I hope it's not 2 $$$typical bank is 6 individual caps.
February 10, 201510 yr Sorry if this is a stupid question, how many in a bank? I hope it's not 2 $$$typical bank is 6 individual caps. What voltage are you trying to maintain in this build? And this is around 60K Rms correct?
February 10, 201510 yr Sorry if this is a stupid question, how many in a bank? I hope it's not 2 $$$typical bank is 6 individual caps. Actually I might be interested in these to maybe feed the Q1-3500D.1 16 volts.. Michael
February 10, 201510 yr Author Starting voltage will be around 14v. Hoping to not drop over 1 volt.I ordered another alternator today from Mike.
February 10, 201510 yr Starting voltage will be around 14v. Hoping to not drop over 1 volt.I ordered another alternator today from Mike.You obviously have put a lot of work in the electrical in this project..I hope you achieve your goals brother. Michael

MichaelThank you. It won't happen overnight, but it will be fun once its all together and playing again.
February 10, 201510 yr Author Started cutting and drilling all the small aluminum straps for the caps.The buss bars are done also.And a few mirrors, for effect.
February 11, 201510 yr Author Do the make your caps in 2.5volts and did you get them off ebayMaxwell used to make the black caps in 2.5v. Most new ones are 2.7v.
February 11, 201510 yr Steve, what is a fair price for caps?which ones?Maxwell's for for around 125-200 depending.The greens one like mine are 300 per bank New Were did you order these from?
February 11, 201510 yr Author The green ones? From the manufacturer. I can get them. They don't sell to the public. Have to be a dealer and wire transfers. Blah blah blah. It's a hassle.

On a SQ-3500D.1 @ 4300rms at 14.4 how many banks do you think I would need to maintain a decent voltage with a mechman 320 amp?Thanks,Michael
February 11, 201510 yr Probably just a good group 31 battery would Br fine.I have a XS Power D925 ordered..And have done a 2/0 big three upgrade..Would this be efficient you think? Thanks,Michael
February 11, 201510 yr Author Never know. Try it and add if needed. Doesn't sound like you need caps. It's a big investment for a small system.
February 11, 201510 yr Never know. Try it and add if needed. Doesn't sound like you need caps. It's a big investment for a small system.$300.00 for a bank?
February 13, 201510 yr Yo uhh know you have alot of followers and im one...where can I get the caps with the two holes for a 2.5v setup
