SMD / D'Amore Engineering AD-1 Amp Dyno, Capacitor Testing Part 2 (Dynamic Burst)

Same intro as Part 1, but dyno runs clips are changed to the dynamic power test clips

All tests in this video were made using the Dynamic Power (Burst) Dyno mode which is representative of musical peaks. We test a Rockford T2500-1bdcp in car, with no added capacitors, then with a 1 Farad aluminum electrolytic capacitor added, and then with a 100 Farad carbon supercapacitor added.

RESULTS:
No Capacitor:
1543 Watts RMS @ 13.80V into 4 ohms
2550 Watts RMS @ 13.32V into 2 ohms
3154 Watts RMS @ 12.76V into 1 ohm

With 1 Farad Capacitor:
1613 Watts RMS @ 13.98V into 4 ohms
2666 Watts RMS @ 13.60V into 2 ohms
3426 Watts RMS @ 13.35V into 1 ohm

With 100 Farad carbon supercapacitor:
1620 Watts RMS @ 13.95V into 4 ohms
2616 Watts RMS @ 13.65V into 2 ohms
3260 Watts RMS @ 12.91V into 1 ohm

Engine RPM held between 2200-2500 for all tests.

1F capacitor didn't add any power on the continuous RMS test, but it OWNED the Dynamic Burst testing!!

100F capacitor added more than 10% more power on the continuous RMS test, but less than 5% on the dynamic burst test.
