Just enough!
First, this product really works as described. I have a 1000 watt Planet Audio amp that is a voltage and amperage hog. I could actually see my light dim when running the sound moderately. I was sceptical that this simple cap could supply enough capacity to effectively solve this dimming issue. After about 3 days, the cap was operating to perfection. No more dimming lights. Also, I notice my speakers actually sounded more crisp and edgy. I wonderful improvement in sound quality. I am very satisfied.

Works fine, only weird thing is that the voltage display does not have a remote wire hook up so it stays on after you shut the system down. It eventually turns off, I don't know how, but it doesn't drain the battery or anything. Looks clean, great for the price, would recommend.

found this helpful.Much Better
I installed this to help with headlight dimming at night and it helped a lot. I have a Pioneer digital 800 watt RMS amp and adding this seemed to help make my amp come alive. Installing and charging was stupid easy. My subs are hitting harder and seem to have a better sound. It didn't totally take away the headlight dimming but it's not nearly as noticeable and it only does it slightly on certain hard-hitting songs. My alternator is 165amp and I have a stock battery so I'll probably upgrade the battery in the future too but I don't go around "bassing" all of the time either.

found this helpful.Nice product
Was looking for a capacitor to help with my car's battery and alternator with the addition of a rockford fosgate preloaded 12" sub, box, amp combination. Capacitors are essentially the same despite the brand. This one features quick negative, positive hook up. No rem wire to turn it on. Con - when it displayed 13.8 volts on the cap, the voltage going to it was actually 14.4 volts on the craftsman voltage meter. Otherwise, nice product.

found this helpful.Works good for 1000w and lower systems. Excellent capacitor.
So I was looking around for a good cap to buy to add onto my system. Honestly I didn't find any I liked that weren't super expensive like $70+. My friend actually recommended this cap to me since he's had it in his car for awhile now. So I thought well for $25 why not give it a shot. Keep in mind I'm running a single 15" Kicker CompD in my trunk so I'm pulling 1200w RMS and 1500w peak. The cap does good and does what it's supposed to do. But for the amount of pull and wattage my sub needs, the cap can't keep up so after about 3 mins or so of listening to music at a high volume, you'll notice the bass quiet down and/or my headlights will ever so slightly start to dim with the beat. So I wouldn't suggest this cap if your system has a rms of over 1000. Other than that the cap is great. Looks cool. Has a blue LED that blinks when there's any sort of draw from the cap. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the terminal bolts. They will strip out. Only a little tightening is all they need to hold them. For $25 though you can't go wrong. It definitely helped my system even if it can't keep up all the time but I'm not thumping for hrs either. Everyday driving it helps keep my amp stable for regular listening.

Definitely recommend the product if you have a starter sound system set up. I have a 12" Kicker L5 with a pioneer champion series 500 w rms in my 99 v6 mustang, and noticed that it would hit real hard for a little, then the power would noticeably fade. With the capacitor the power is constant and you are always in control of when you want to slap. It looks awesome, my friends always confuse it for NOS. If you are a beginner however, I recommend going to youtube to learn how to connect it and charge it. It is very easy, and I did it myself.

found this helpful.Belva BPKG210v2 Amplified bass package
Having spent 30 years in the aftermarket audio field,as a professional installer/tech,made me want to try something other than product I was already familiar with.I was curious to see just what Belva was about.That being said,dollar for dollar,you won't really find any better deal than this when it comes to eveything you get.A complete,amplified subwoofer system,with everything it takes to install it into virtually any vehicle it will fit into at this price point. I will say,the enclosure is well made,with internal bracing,and a front facial laminated board so that the subs look like they are flushed in,as well as being nicely trimmed out with durable "speaker box" material.It's a very nice looking set up overall.I will say,the box is just a little too small for these woofers,and the amplifier could have been a bit stronger than it is,BUT,it does sound very good overall,and performs rock solid.I haven't heard,or have seen any other package deals in this price range that would give it a run for the money,and there are several out there.I'm just not too sure of the quality of the build of other products being up to par with this deal.

found this helpful.Awesome for price
I have been running this capacitor for a month and no complaints thus far. This is my first capacitor. Normally I do not use them, but this is a brand new car and I wanted to protect the battery. Technically, I only needed a 1/2 farad cap. So, I'm sure it is being under-utilizing. I like the led volt gauge on it.

found this helpful.Amazing starter set
When I first saw belva I was a little skeptical it's such a great price I will say these will not bust your windshield out but the amp has speaker level inputs and 200 rms it will thump and boom for less than 200$ its definitely an amazing deal for a starter sub dont expect a 1000$ sub set up but this will do the trick won't over power factory stero while still providing that bass we all love ! It also has everything you need to hook up nothing else needed!

Absolutely fantastic, if you're questioning this purchase, don't, just get one!

found this helpful.Good value
I was skeptic about buying a capacitor because so many people say they're pointless. But i was having problems with headlight dimming. So I went with a cheaper one. After connecting it, I immediately noticed the kick drum was hitting harder. Not a huge difference, but enough that i was glad I bought it. Also, it greatly reduced the headlight dimming. At this price, I would recommend to anybody that has an amp less than 1K watt, having headlight or other electrical issues.

This 1 farad capcitor does what it's supposed to. I'm pushing more than the recomended wattage for this particular unit. It is helping the dimming situation. But for my particular situation. I needed a bigger CAP. It includes a small charge piece to pre charge it so you don't get a spark when hook up the power. I couldn't get it to pre charge so hook it up. For a spark and it was good to go. Probably not the way to do it but that's how I did it

The Belva BB1D is a well made, solid product. The one complaint I had was with the mounting brackets; the rear bracket had a lip on it that I had to remove with a dremel to fit it in my truck. Capacitor itself is perfectly fine with being under the hood, near the edge of the hood. Install was very easy, just plug and play. Initial charging of the capacitor only took a few seconds and it works flawlessly. Very happy with this product.
23
found this helpful.Seems to work
Capacitor seems to work but there is a blue light on the top where it reads voltage. Every time it is charging the light blinks off and on. It's kind of annoying because any power being used at all it starts to blink. Example rolling up-down window applying brake peddle or anything makes this charging light blink.

This system even hits decent lows. Shakes my seats and windshield. I would definitely recommend this to people who want to add bass to their car and still be able to turn it up good! Very good purchase for kids in school too. Just keep in mind these are not able to compete with better systems. The amp gets pretty warm, almost hot but hasn't failed me. Subs stay cool even through a 1 hour drive bumping them to their limits the entire way..still very cool to the touch.
Again I highly recommend this to kids in school or people who want trunk space and more bass in their system.
Only complaints would be the amp gets pretty warm and I don't really like the bass knob. OTHER than that I really enjoy this!

I work in the auto repair business and get to sit in a lot of nice cars. The stereo setups in those cars are amazing. Bass is nice and sounds good. This bass package reminds me of a lot of those nice car sound systems. The bass is great a little bit of tuning does have to be done to get the sound that you like but it’s super simple. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a simple bass package for beginners, easy to install and fits great. Honestly, I had never heard of Belva before but I was willing to give them a chance. I was really surprised by the quality of the product for such an inexpensive price. I’m 100% satisfied with this purchase thanks for selling.

To be honest, for what you get this is a pretty good deal. I recommend spending more money for a nicer one but this is a great starter package. The amp just recently broke but it lasted me a while.
15
found this helpful.Good for the value I guess.
I bought this bass package about 2 years ago. It’s probably a different version amp now but it’s the same thing pretty much. First of all, I knew I wasn’t buying an extremely high-quality product but for what I was using it for and for how long I was using it I didn’t expect it to only last two years. The amp blew or broke the first 6 months ago. So it lasted a year and a half. I had a new amp installed that is compatible with the subs that were still working. Just recently (June 2021) I blew the left sub out of the 2. So the subs I guess lasted 2 years. I had all my products professionally installed so I can rely on the fact that it was done right. If you don’t mind this bass package being cheap and lasting for 2 years then go ahead and buy it. I was only using it for about 30 min a day for about 6 days a week. So in my opinion I don’t think I was overusing it during the 2 years I had it. I do not plan on buying a somewhat cheap bass package again.
