yo... bro... below is my comment...
1. Since u using 65pcs or more cap for VS diy, more cap will cause more leakage current when ur car engine stop, i think better put on/off switch or connect it to cigarette lighter, it can avoid car can't start when long time no use.
2. Purpose for u to build VS is ICE stable and improve, try connect it close to ur amp, disc player better than connect to car battery. Same theory with "big" or ICE cap.
3. Dont worry, 0.5F got function also, this is demand problem, 1F doesn't means better than 0.5F, if ur car ICE not so high "transient power" demand. (Don't tell me ur car got 4 amp, 10 bass spkr, 10 mid range spkr... lol)
4. Safety is important, dont forget series 1 10A fuse, LED indicator and better make one cover for ur VS.
And, below is "my" thinking of DIY...(for VS, increase hp, fuel saver and similar DIY)
No every DIY can success and got theory(or strange theory) can follow, sometimes base on DIYer "feeling", especially VS, fuel saver magnet, increase hp oil... so:
1. When u "feel" ur DIY got improvement, and ur car no any malfunction come out. We can consider is success.
2. When u "feel" ur DIY no diff before and after. We consider "mayb" got improve but can't "feel" (:shades_smile: yup la.. already spend time and money.. lol), so try extend the monitoring time... if still no "feeling", u can consider remove it or js leave it.
3. When u "feel" ur DIY let ur car performance drop down, and got malfunction come out, remove ur DIY things quickly... and find out it is wrong connection, it is same condition or environment with ur DIY source, using wrong material.... or js become another "White Mouse"
.
ok... above is my some comment.. and pardon of my poor english... wish can help u and clear ur mind....
p.s:
i like this sentences " this is a diy forum... I believe 99.99% of the people prefer to diy." cheers.....
