Brand-X XXL850FB 850 Amp Fast-Batt Battery/Capacitor Combo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a battery for my car system. Wow, I thought. A Cap and Battery integrated into one. Cool idea. It says,"Battery/Capacitor Combo". Cool. The part I did not get was that it is NOT a "Battery/Capacitor Combo". Forget fine-print, reading the regular print doesnt help here. Actually, reading the title doesnt help either.
CONS:
1. Everything related here. The title, the information, Amazon for letting this display as it does... total and complete false advertising. Shame on Amazon.
2. ummm... I just spent $150 something and now have nothing to start my car.
After reading the manual, I guess I will replace my other cap since I now have two caps. This one should work better since it looks a lot bigger than normal caps... I still can not believe I spent over $150 on a stupid cap! This is the dumbest thing I have ever been swindled into. Maybe I should look into buying some land 90 miles South of the Keys? Want to sell me that next?? Liek I said.. I am an idiot. Do not be like me.

Boss CAP35 35 Farad Capacitor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The following was sent by me to the Boss Audio company about their CAP-35 product:
I just purchased your CAP35 from Amazon.com. S/N 10044600198. Upon receipt, I decided to check the capacitor on the bench before actually installing in a vehicle. I am baffled by the results when charging the capacitor. With the included 50 ohm resistor it only took a few minutes to get to the supply's 12v output. With a 35 Farad capacitor I expected the classic capacitor charge curve to hold true - T(sec)=C(35)xR(50) equaling 1750 seconds to get to 1TC of 7.584 volts - 29 MINUTES! It only took a couple minutes, telling me that I have only maybe a 3-5 Farad capacitor! Please explain. What is wrong? How do I really get 35 Farad?
Please explain!
Their lame response was simply "We have tested a couple of CAP35 and it does take a couple of minutes to fully charge.".
This is NOT a true 35 Farad capacitor unit that would operate at the rated 16 volts, as per my above description. In my opinion the Car Audio Industry is a very dishonest industry in this regard. Buyer beware!

Boss CAP3.5R 3.5 Farad Capacitor (Red) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product worked out of the box, but has done little to nothing to help my system stop draining the car. I don't really think it is 3.5 farad..I believe it's less than 1 farad.

Power Acoustik 2.0 Farad Digital Power Capacitor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used it for two hours. At the end of that time I attempted to reconfigure it with a different circuit design and the post broke right off when I tried to loosen the nut.
It worked like a charm while it was connected. As a general rule of thumb if you plan to keep it in one place and not disconnect and reconnect it a lot, go ahead and purchase it. I was using it in a bike generator capacity so that meant it would be reconnected a fair amount.

Boss CAP4C 4 Farad Capacitor (Chrome) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this product to support my 2 12's, 2 amps, and 6 highs... This product wasnt the same Item that the the picture showed. In the picture capacitor is silver but when i opened the box i was suprised to see a red capacitor in a opened plastic that look like was intended to be for the original capacitor indicated in the picture. The red capacitor is a 3.5 Farad, on the plastic label it said 4 Farad capacitor so that was confirmation that they ripped it open and downgraded my product. Havent used the product yet but was highly upset that they opened my product and switched it with a less Farad Capacitor.. When i use the product i will write another review

Boss Audio Cap20 20 Farad Power Capacitor, Black Chrome Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Recently I decided to replace my old car stereo with something a little more contemporary. While researching stereos I stumbled across articles claiming that capacitors would eliminate the dimming of headlights. Since the stereo was going to be installed in an old school muscle car, it seemed that some capacitors would lesson the strain on the battery and alternator. I chose the Boss 10/20 capacitors, since they were economic and offered the most farads. After placing the order I saw the reviews of similar Boss capacitors; talk about bad reviews!! Those other reviews had me regretting my decision, since customer reviews persuade my decisions, more so on unfamiliar products.
Now for the facts:
1. Everything required to install the capacitors was included. I used longer screws to secure the capacitors, since they were installed in a car with a large amount of hp and torque.
2. Boss includes a small transistor to charge the capacitor before being attached to the battery. I read that the voltmeter on the capacitor would increase once the circuit was completed, which didn't happen. I used my voltmeter to validate if the capacitors were taking and holding a charge, which they were. I charged both capacitors to 12 volts before attaching the positive terminal.
3. After attaching the positive terminal I checked the battery volts and the capacitors, all three were at 12.5 volts. I turned the ignition switch to the on position and everything lit up, including the voltmeters. I validated the volts on the capacitors with my voltmeter and all three meters were identical.
4. I installed the 10 farad capacitor to a 400watt amp and the 20 farad capacitor to a 500watt amp. With the engine running and the system at max volume the lights did not flicker one time. With the engine off the lights did not even dim. I biggest test for my vehicle was to start the vehicle after allowing the stereo system to run without the motor running. My motor has a higher compression and needs every drop of power to start, which it did without issue after allowing the stereo to run solo off the capacitors and battery.
5. This is the first time I have ever installed a capacitor and it was way too easy to do the installation. I have only had the capacitors installed for five days and unless they melt down in a week or two, I must recommend them with five stars. They work, they didn't break, all the lights/voltmeter work, and they offer large amounts of farads for a decent price.
