Lights dimming badly!!

[Cameron P]

How can I fix my interior and exterior lights dimming when the bass hits? I don't even want to hook up a voltage meter lol

Kinda battery you run? Optima yellow tops are great, talk to vkcommo about getting one. Also doing the big 3 upgrade helps with voltage drop. Do a search on here about it.
Kinda set up you got running?

It's called a capacitor...

Not sure what size you would need, but bigger is better within reason.

Put it somewhere along the power line and dimming interior/extrior lights will be a thing of the past.

Cheers.

Capacitors are a gimmick. Upgrade the big 3 check your earth and go from there.

Alright I will search this big 3 thing.

Got 2x option audio pro series subs with 1800 watt each I think and I big amp powering those and I got 4 350watt pioneer speakers running off another Amp with 1800+watt and a kenwood headdeck

The Big3 is what most should be doing to there system b4 going big, and reading your system your getting there.

Cam, ive just done a ground upgrade (2 more 4awg grounds) and it makes a big difference, So yeah, try the big three, and if that doesnt help then we can talk about an optima at the next cruise if you want?

How much did the big 3 cost jack? To do yourself?

Cheers man

 

[Cameron P]

And cheers Brendan.. It is getting there, after I fix the dimming and make everything all neat and tidy it will be done

Makes me cringe when it's turned up as loud as it can go =P

4AWG, $10. A few lugs, $10 more. Plus some soldier and a blowtorch, or a big crimper, equals cheap as piss.
