What is a BATCAP? A conventional battery, as we all know has a positive and negative terminal. The chemical reaction within creates a flow of electrons, causing an electronic device (in this case an amplifier) to work. The stiffening capacitor is similar to a battery in that it stores a charge. The fundamental difference is it cannot create electrons. It can only store and supply (discharge) them upon demand. The advantage with a capacitor is that it discharges in one twenty thousandth of a second, unlike a battery that does in one second. The battery therefore cannot discharge fast enough to effectively supply the amplifier and this is the reason for "power sags." WAKE UP! Don't fall asleep just yet, we're getting to the exciting part! The XSTATIC BATCAP© is simply a battery that can discharge just a s quickly as a capacitor. Therefore, you have a  constant supply of electrons that will discharge at lightning speed. This puts less strain on your stock alternator and battery. It also recharges faster than a conventional battery since the internal resistance is low. How about the install? Well I'm sure you can find a place to put this 2.5lb. baby and his 5lb. big brother. Don't let the size fool you though. These BATCAP's can crank your car, and you can bet we put that to the test! The cost is another remarkable feature since the 300 model costs the same as a "High End" stiffening capacitor and the 400 model costs a little more. Remember, "good things come in small packages." (I was going to say that "SIZE" doesn't  matter but, let's not offend anyone now.) Oh, by the way, the fact that the BATCAP© is capable of discharging in a RUSH over a 5-10 second period SCREAMS three letters, "SPL!"      Written by: Rodney Kurbanali San Juan, Trinidad, WI
