Why do you need car audio capacitors?

A loud and bassy car audio system is great, but it can also hinder other parts of your vehicle. An overpowered amplifier can drain the juice from your battery, dim the car’s lights, or strain the alternator. To help alleviate any issues or potential damage, you should hook up a high-quality Recoil power capacitor. It works like a smaller version of your battery and stores energy to be used for other electronic components, such as the amplifier.

It's a capacitor. Not quite enough for a smart 3K amplifier. It drops from 14.5V down to the mid-twelves at higher volumes. I'm guessing this would work well with a 1000-2000 watt system.

Mine never lit up. I checked it with a voltmeter and it shows to hold some charge, but the screen never lit up. I just left it in line because of the power block.

This capacitor was easy to install and it is awesome. I love how I get full power to my amplifier every time. And my subs sound amazing and it helps keep my lights from dimming.

Didn't hold a charge for more than 30 seconds. I reached out to the MFR before returning it and they ignored the message. There are other reviews saying the same thing. Don't waste your time.

I bought this to add to my small system in hopes aid in any high current draws from my amp. My alternator is sufficient. I just wanted to error on the side of caution. Great packaging, clear instructions, amazing quality. Recoil is truly some good stuff! I recommend highly.

I know that most capacitors don't have nearly the capacitance that are on the label, and while I don't have the ability to test how much this one has, I do know that there is a bit more punch on the subwoofer when the volume is turned up higher.The voltage display is nice to have on any high demand device, and the ability to connect two devices besides the power is great.I was able to fit 1/0 gauge wire to this capacitor and it's very easy to install with the included hardware.
