price and product- not bad

Running 2 10" JL subs and a 500watt amp, its keeping my battery power from draining while allowing me to listen to my sounds. Not bad for a 1-farad cap.

Does nothing

I can't tell any difference with this item on my vehicle or not. I bought it to help out with my lights deeming every time my bass hit but there wasn't any noticeable difference made.

Cheap and useful

I didn't know what is Cap means, so I went to my local audio store and got one of this for my 12 inch Pioneer, since I was using old battery, I was worrying, because of cheap price, but you know what, it works, and works great, I felt big difference in sound!! It worth it, but still, instead of cap save for better battery :)

This capacitor does most of its job

This capacitor does its job of regulating the voltage to the amplifier. I still get my lights flickering. The bass is a bit more powerful (I did a voltage test), but if the bass is constant and does not give the capacitor any time to charge, the voltage will drop to 10v and your bass will start to skip. This capacitor is not bad, but I would recommend a better one for the same price.

great

I had it for a while and it saved a little. Buy this and you should upgrade battery.

1 Farad Capacitor

This is a great capacitor. For being relatively inexpensive it does the job perfectly well. Sure I could have paid a lot more for a capacitor of the same size, but why when this one works just as well as the higher priced ones. I'm very pleased with this cap. The digital display is a nice touch also.

i got one of these but it turned out to be defective so my experience with this product was not all that great.

Truly great cap!

I bought this 1F capacitor a while back for a project I was doing at the time. I was not expecting to get an exceptional product as the price was very reasonable. To my surprise the cap was great. Very well made and good looking too. If you are looking for a large low-voltage capacitor look no further.

Okay buy

I didn't pay much for this so I guess it's what you pay for. It didn't prevent my lights from dimming what so ever. So overall I have to say this product doesn't have a true 1k farad in it. Suggest getting another battery or a more powerful/better capacitor.

CAP

it gets the job done I had it hooked up to a 800 watt amp to stop my lights from going dim every time the base hit on my old system but if your looking to stop your lighting from dimming just save up the cash and buy a bigger battery

Solved our problems

We have several radio and amplifier devices in our remote communicatios van at the radio station. We were having problems with interference between them. Putting a Sonic 1 Farad capacitor on the power line completely eliminated the cross talk and left our operators very happy. Even though there are two Ultima deep cycle batteries in the package the capacitor was still necessary to eliminate the AC component caused by the heave amplifier current demands. All of our vans will be equipped with these capacitors soon.

I'm happy

This is the second capacitor I've bought the first was made by power acoustik and this cap works pretty well. The only thing I don't like is the cap doesn't turn on until your really moving some current. It's totally personal and may not bother you, but for me if the stereo is on I want to know the voltage at the cap reguardless of wether or not it's running.

Install Bay IB-CAP1F

Install Bay IB-CAP1F is a good choice in the middle price range. After installation, the bass became more realistic with a good impact.
