Car audio capacitors

[EightySix Four]

This is incredibly cheap compared to a stinger branded capacitor. Is there any reason for this, is it just brand-name hype, or is it really an inferior product? (For the same price stinger will probably give you 1.5 - 2 farads, for those to lazy this is a Power Acoustic 20 farad hybrid cap)

I would definately go with a generic capacitor. You might want to check your local electrical supply shops.

Too generic/cheap?

50 farads is a bit much, but can't beat that price 😛

Dur, didn't even think to look there, thanks.

A LOT of the caps out there are the same ones, just with a different paint or "sleeve job".
Price doesn't seem to matter all that much...

Add a lil more cash and get a high output alternator which will solve your electrical problems. Caps are pretty useless, just band-aids.
