The BEST car audio battery for under $500? We test the new GV-S2.

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This is Glowe Voltage's BRAND NEW Series 2 model LifePo4 battery.
8,000+ watts? With this battery you don't even need an alternator for that.
12,000+ watts on a stock alternator? Easily.
Under $500? Check.
Wait, under $500 to support 12,000 watts on stock charging? Yeah, we mean business. Was it mentioned this battery is SMALL (under HALF the size of a 96 amp hour headway bank), and only weighs about 11 pounds?!
Welcome to 2023. Ditch your explosive CMAX cells. Sell your headways. Hide your wife.
Get it here: glowevoltage.com/shop/batteri...
In this video we demonstrate the performance you can expect from this battery with detailed graphs charting the voltage against the amperage draw, and run the same test with a lead acid battery. Hint: It's no comparison. In under 15 seconds on stock charging the amplifiers were going into protect trying to do what the S2 can do with no charging at all.

    Also, that depends on the music. These change more quickly than a lead acid, so they can pick up amperage pretty quickly between beats etc. they also hold their voltage very well during the entire discharge cycle.

    @@GloweIndustries I was talking about the cells INSIDE the GV-S1 & GV-S2, the title of this video. The BMS inside these will die soon because these storage batteries are not rated for high burst currents. Headway cells are rated at 200Amps continuous EACH. Typical headway battery 4S8P configuration with bus bars would give 8 x 200A = 1600Amps. Sorry, a headway battery is superior and cheaper! Storage batteries are designed for 12V appliances (RVs) or for solar power walls, not for audio amps.
