WARNING!!!

Before making or breaking any electrical connections, please

make sure to read the following instructions on how to properly

charge and discharge the capacitor. Not following the charge / dis-

charge instructions can lead to permanent damage to the capacitor,

which is not covered under the manufacturer warranty.

For maximum performance, the capacitor should be installed as close

to your amplifier(s) as possible. The ideal location is one which allows for

short wiring runs while keeping the capacitors somewhat isolated from

the heat created by the amplifier system. The positive (+) power wire

should be kept as short as possible and be connected to the amplifier’s

battery supply input. We recommend that a high performance distribution

block be used to create a splice into this cable (see Fig. 1). You may also

use the capacitor itself as a distribution block by adding multiple power

wires to the terminals located on the top of the capacitor.

No fuses should be installed in the wire between the capacitor and the

amplifier system (make sure there is an appropriate fuse at the battery

in the main power supply cable). The ground cable for the capacitor

should also be made as short as possible and be connected directly to

the vehicle chassis at a bare metal location. Do not grounf the capacitor

directly to the amplifier ground terminal or ground cable. The capcitor and

all other components in the system should be grounded using separate

ground cables. It is ok to ground them to the same point on the chassis or

frame, just not connected directly to eachother. (see Fig. 1) The positive

(+) and negative (-) wires for the capacitor should be the same gauge as

the amplifier’s power and ground cables.
