did you run the remote wire to the capacitor?mramazing111 said:
no...i didnt do that, but the capacitor still works and my battery doesnt run down
ya i don't know, on mine the display shuts off, but on my roommates it stays on... but ya like sohclubkid said, you should run a remote wire for the cap too...Jordan_n said:
yee they do...when my car is running the capacitor is at a little above 14 volt and i after the car is off it drops to a little above 12 (same voltage as the battery)
thanks for the advice..ill try to run the remote wire
my cap is power acoustic brand and it doesn't have a remote wire on/off trigger for it. It goes on and of when it sees an increase in power or an decrease. the max it stays on when the car isn't running is about a minuet.
