[Julian 641]

How many amp hours will be needed to run a Saz-3000d on .5 ohms? i will be having a 270 amp alt.

thanks, Julian.

Dont void your warranty and run it at 0.5 ohms and possibly shorten its life span (if not done correctly).

I believe it's within its warranty, I'm not quite sure.

Running a Sundown Amp at 0.5 ohms is voiding the warranty thats why I said it.

[CrazyKenKid 64]

well 0.5 isn't NOT in the warrenty ANY MORE. the second you go into 0.5ohm load and blow the amp (if) they will know right away and so will you as you can kiss it good by!

so if you are goign to do it and do it correctly give those 2 video's a look at and see if you understand what is going on!

[Julian 641]

Well.. that's lame.

oh well.

how many amp hours for 1 ohm load, i was thinking 200 AH

[CrazyKenKid 64]

how much fusing is on the amp and do you have a h/o (high output alt)

[Julian 641]

300 amp fuse.. and 270 amp alt

[jcarter1885 995]

Yeah I was just about to suggest that you run it @ 1ohm, which I see you are.

[corrie3232 8]

i read somewhere that it takes atleast 100 ah per 1000 watts so i would say 300ah

Yeah I have to but when you get an HO Alternator doesnt it change the AH needed?

Well.. that's lame.

That's lame ?

Make a list of manufacturers that cover 1 ohm rated amps ran at 1/2 ohm under warranty... I am pretty sure you will find this in almost every manufacturers warranty text :

"This warranty does not cover improper installation, accidental damage, misuse, abuse, improper wiring, operation of unit outside of listed specifications, or any product that has been modified or repaired by anyone other than Sundown Audio."

A warranty exists to cover manufacturers defects... not abuse damage.

I wasn't saying its lame because as Crazyken said

well 0.5 isn't NOT in the warrenty ANY MORE. the second you go into 0.5ohm load and blow the amp (if) they will know right away and so will you as you can kiss it good by!

It's lame that it isnt anymore.. or if it ever was.

A long time ago we offered it on the SAZ-1500Ds -- before the 2000, 3000, 3500, 4500, etc were released.

It's been years.

[Julian 641]

ah, I assumed it was because i've seen people running them on .5 ohms thanks anyways.
