| I need to know if they will hold up, all I have is 1650w with 2 hc2400s in back, and hc1400 up front. Will a 300amp be to much? | |

^^ This.. yes you can't have too much "reserve", the amp will only drink as much as it needs, its not like the alt can force 300a of current onto what you are using. | |

| I found a better deal on a mechman 200amp that should be plenty | |

| I got a mechman 250a, right out the box it causes my Battery indicator light in the dash to stay on ALL the time, i asked them about it and they said i could send it back but its not causing me any problems. I clamped 255a out of it and it regulates perfectly, so i think its just an interaction issue between the BCM and the regulator. | |

You can put a resistor in the signal circuit to fix the batt light. | |

| mine is an 00' with a single wire setup. I thought about impeding the signal to see if that would fix it, but i have not looked at the old alt to see what the nominal value is. The cluster reflects voltage, just the battery indicator light does not recognize the alternator. I haven't really had much time to dig into it. | |
