Just purchased the S5 4700 last Thursday from D4S. Can't wait to see how much more power I can get from JP23 V1.5 I even bought some 0/1 gauge for the big 3 for more current from my stock 140a Alt If it does ok I'll wait till I have enough to make a blow thru with bigger amps and woofers

IKR, about the sound deadener, that’s my goal! But…I guess your in luck bc I have a buddy that lives in Vegas and has had 1 under the hood WITHOUT ANY Problems for over 2 years now
@josuegaona1546 Yeah they don’t come shipped 100% charged you will need to charge it before installing it! If you’re ordering the S5 version is 100% at 13.6v, I charged mine to 14.0v! You don’t have to go buy a couple hundred dollar lithium charger either! I just used a $30 Noco Genius 1, put it on the lithium setting, and hook a Multi meter up to it so u can monitor it, DO NOT Over charge it, so make sure you stay right there with it while charging! The noco 1 will take longer to charge bc it’s only a 1a charger but beats paying Hundreds! I have a link to the charger in the description if you’d like to check it out! If you have any other ?’s, don’t hesitate, I’m here to help! Thanks 🫡💪🏼💯
Bro just do the big 3, it LITERALLY takes 10 MINS it’s SO easy, I could wake up from dead sleep and put my big 3 in and out so easy pz and it just steadys your volts so much, I run 2 18s off 6500 watts no alternator no lithium, just agm
Mine don’t budge now, but also I’m currently doing a new build, but idk if I mentioned it in this video or 1 b4 but I already have the big 3 kit just haven’t installed it yet bc I was gunna do it when I put my HOA in & do it all at once!
So did i just buy a 320 high output alt for no reason? This battery with my 130 amp alt would gave been enough to run my 3-4k system on it own? Do you have to drive it evey day to keep it charged or can you not drive a week and be fine?
Yeah, man sorry to say. But also it gets worse, unfortunately. You can’t run a titan 8 direct fit S5 version with a high output alternator higher than 300 amps 😬 sorry man! Just don’t want to see nothing bad happen nor you waste anymore money!
@MoToArchY I actually just talked to xs today and they said 320 would be fine. I ordered my alt yesterday so im currently trying to cancel my order and buy the titan8. Cool thing about these is they are the same output for all sizes. Did you have any issues with battery drain with that small amount of ah?
Really!? That’s interesting, who did you speak with bc I have their car audio experts direct line!? I would double check, bc I was wanting to go with a 320 js HOA and they just recommended me going with the 250 they offer! I’m just telling you what I was told and what the directions and videos say! Let me know how it turns out! But about the AH not really bc LTO recharges insanely FAST and I never listen to my music without the car running, which btw I RECOMMEND to EVERY1 To ALWAYS DO! + I have more watts than you plan on running so you should be fine! & ACTUALLY…imma bout to make a short or a lil video of something, let’s just say ah “lil trick” I learned I could do today! 🤫🫨🤯 But lmk how it turns out!
Another thing I would like to add is your doing the right thing getting the battery 1st! Check my other video out about which to choose first! Battery or alternator! Even js recommend battery 1st! Bc not every battery can take a HOA apparently!
@MoToArchY I spoke with Patrick and I just confirmed again with him 320 is fine. I just saw they have a new version of the titan8 to pre order with twice the ah for around the same price, I'll just have to wait till Jan though. I do plan on running more watts down the road. I should be able to accomplish that with just these batteries and that's crazy where car audio going. Soon alts will be useless sounds like. The new titan8 rsv46 is 46ah 6k to 10k
Really wish I could have used one of these for my build but I had to go with the super bank because my engine bay gets really hot and I've heard that these are under hood safe but for vehicles like yours with battery protection trays and best to use the heat shield like you are doing there's no replacement for reserve's AH'S but the super cap did stabilize the voltage some great video bro keep upgrading its addictive LoL especially when you can hear and feel a gain in your setup I love it but on the real when I was running the stock alternator super caps made a huge difference in how hard my subs hit
Yeah it don’t have a lot of AH but I don’t demo or park and play, I always just listen when I’m driving, so it’s better suited for that and I’m not running insane power so that helps too! But on a stock alternator, not bad, I’m definitely upgrading to a HOA tho, bc it’s NEVER enough and ALWAYS wanna go bigger!
@@MoToArchY mo powa baby 💪💪💯 I learned the hard way bro almost 1500$ on lifepo4 and other temporary bandaids but every time I came up lacking and finally got told the golden rule it takes power to make power I'm limited to a 240 amp with my 4-cylinder car BUT the SCIB makes up for it with super strong voltage the 29AH is a monster battery for the small capacity of reserves it has I can't wait to see what I can do with the 72.5AH's 808patanderdon was running the same bank on 3 AAK 8k's and several thousand wattion mids and highs and was holding voltage above 15 so I should be good for around 20-25k but I really really like the fact that XS is making options for the stock charging system in LTO I want to see everyone banging no matter what you're running
Droppin hz has the new titan8 group 34 version available for pre order. 400 bucks for 69ah 2k-5k just bought one. Get one while they are on sale. They also have a 5k-10k Group 34 version.
No man, NOT At ALL! When they ship the battery it’s never at 100% so you just need to charge it once before you install it and then your alternator, will continue to keep it charged! That’s why I recommend just getting the charger I linked because you will only need it ONCE! I didn’t feel it was necessary to buy a couple hundred dollar charger just to use once! Hope this helps
I just bought the charger. About how long did it take to charge your Titan up, bro? I have mine on the charger now. Just curious so i can be careful not to overcharge it.
@@coachron30I can’t remember exactly I wrote it down, but I’m not at home right now. But it was like a couple hours I think not very long for real, but it’s VERY important not to over charge it, keep a multimeter hooked up to it and STAY near it! DON’T leave it on overnight or nothing, if you have to, unplug it and continue to finish charging it when you have time to monitor it! Hope this helps! Keep me posted! I have big things coming VERY soon!
Yeah, sorry just getting back to you but I don’t know exactly what lifepo4 you have or your whole electrical setup, so you shouldn’t run a HOA bigger than 300 amps, but the titan 8 S5’s (12v version) can be ran in parallel with lifepo4 and agm! Confirmed it with Ben @ XS Power!
it Should be fine, but I would call XS Power and ask to speak to Ben, tell him you seen this video and I sent yah, and he can and WILL answer ANY ?’s you have! But make sure to speak to Ben, (865) 688-5953! + the battery’s are $100 OFF right now! Hope this helps, these batteries are INSANE!!! 🫡💪🏼💯
@@GLO_187 I mean HOA= High Output Alternator, higher than 300 amps of charge! For example JS Alternators makes a 250 amp, 320 amp, 370 amp, and 400 amp High Output alternators! So go with the 250 amp that’s what I’m going with!
DAMN! But actually they not just doing STOCK charging, if you look at the titan 8 S6 & S7 (I have S5) S6 is 15.5-17.4v & S7 is 18.2-20.3v!🤯 but I’m limited to a 300 amp HOA too, BUT…I THINK if I run a second battery in parallel I could do a bigger alt but idk that forsure can’t remember, so don’t hold me to it, but I THINK so! If so I think you could as well!💪🏼⚡️
I can let you know lol, but it already reached 90 for a couples months when it was installed but so far so good! There’s a guy I know who lives in las Vegas and has been running it for 2 years! But XS power done a great job in the casing and internals I believe it’s good! No problems and lithium don’t like heat nor cold! I believe it’s 136 degrees Fahrenheit to I believe 3°F
@MoToArchY I'm get a titan pwr 5k around the same time. I'll be running sundown xv4 and a taramps bass 8k by this summer so I'm getting my electrical solid first. I might even run 2 prw 5k
Just purchased a 320 alt from JS Alternator but at one point it was saying 300 alt N/A. What I was thinking was running this along with the PWR S-5 but man that's well over $1000 WITHOUT lithium charger 😮💨
What said, 300 alt not available!? This and the pwr s5 is meant to be charged NO Higher than 300 amps BUT I think if you run them in parallel with one another you can have more than a 300 amp alt, don’t quote me on it but I think so! Call them and see but I think you can! But I do KNOW 4sure, individually you’re not supposed to charge more than a 300 amp HOA! Also man I just used a noco 1a charger like $50 on Amazon to charge the 1st time and after your alt will do it! Plus in the directions it says they recommend the smallest amp charge (1a) to charge if totally discharged anyways! Hope this helps, if you have anything else or ?’s just lmk!
